CommentJames Arnold visited this lot 20 Mar 1880 (his #6): "On land of Thomas H Peckham south of his house on a hill entirely unprotected are 11 large and 4 small graves, all marked rudely. Called the Bentley burial yard." Peckham house was 1/4 mile NNE of Daniel Sweet's house. 3/8 mile from Slocumville Road.
