CommentEnter winding driveway to left of pole 9, which leads to old farmhouse. Walk down gravel road at right of lower parking area, past two large blue spruce trees, for about 50'. Lot lies to left about 25' in, in a cleared area without marked boundries. Neglected. On 25 July 1880 when James N. Arnold surveyed this lot, his #67; "on land of James A. Arnold, southeast from his house in lot unprotected is an ancient burial yard of the Fones and Hazard families." Recorded by Althea McAleer, Beatrix Hoffius, and Deby Nunes for a 1992 book on North Kingstown cemeteries. In 2007/2008 this cemetery was restored and an iron fence put around it.
