800 ft west of Slocum Rd and 500 ft south of Old Yawgoo School Rd. These two gravestones are about 100 ft west and 10ft north of the 'T' in the stone wall. Transcribed by James Arnold in 1880 described as " a short distance from the house of Peleg Amos Arnold southwest and northwest from Mr. Sherman's lot resides a burial yard of his family, lot poorly protected". This cemetery was found, registered and recorded by John Sterling & James Good for their 1994 book on Exeter cemeteries.
