CommentThis cemetery is located 20 feet south of Snake Hill Road across from #775 Snake Hill Road. Sayles #38 - Benns #794. Located just east of Tourtellot Hill Rd. Stone wall on east and north sides; barb wire on south and west. Benns transcribed this cemetery under two different numbers: Benns #647 (vol IV, page 61). "Phillips, Snake Hill Road, Glocester." They also state the following. "Beside the road, over a stone wall, is one of the strangest cemeteries we have found. It is fairly large, and the graves are all close together, a field of humps and hollows,the graves marked with field stones with out inscriptions, with this one exception. There must be at least 50 graves." Benns #794 (Vol V, page 15). "Phillips on Snake Hill Road, Glocester"
