CommentLocated 20 feet east of Joe Sarle Road at NEL pole #18. One lot inside the stone wall is surrounded by a white picket fence in good order (2013). Benns #317 (Vol II, pp 297-300) "Wilder Cemetery, Glocester." Joseph L Saunders (Vol 13, page 33). "The following are buried in the Wilder burial ground about 6 miles southwest of Chepachet." He also states that "There are other graves but just a common stone with no printing." Note: it appears as though he only transcribed those with the Saunders or Sanders name. Transcribed by Howard B Smith November 1934. (Vol 13, pp 34-6)"Wilder Burial Ground. One half mile north of "Cornell Stand" Hartford Pike."
