Comment
This cemetery was surveyed by Roger Beaudry on January 2, 1995. At that time the correct description for this lot would be totally trashed. Not one stone was standing and all stones were smashed. Not one intact stone could be found. 9 stones could be pieced together enough to make out data. It is almost certain that these fragment will be tossed about at a later date further desecrating this lot. It should also be noted that the map numbers do not necessarily correspond with the burial location of the stones, but rather the order in which they lay on the ground. James N Arnold transcribed this lot and listed it in his work in Volume 15, pages 16-17. He described lot as follows: "On farm of John A Mowry beside road, lot walled and in fine condition." Lot was also surveyed by Ethel M White in the 1930's. She listed its location as: "1st road on right from Washington Highway near Louisquisset Pike. At side of road on bank." Transcribed by Ron Farrar who described it as follows: "Albion Road, North of Rt 116."
