Pole | |
Comment | On Shermantown Rd, in woods behind pole 83. It is across Shermantown Road from Candy Apple Lane. A dirt road to left of pole leads to gravel pit. About 2/3 distance from Shermantown Rd to pit enter woods on right, cross stone wall about 25' in, walk about 300'. Lot is not enclosed, lies on a knoll; takes a search to find. Trees, brush, etc. have covered and displaced some stones. No evident vandalism.
Arnold recorded this yard on 18 March 1880, his #13, "on the land of James Sherman, east of his house, and east of brook on a knoll is a burial yard of his family."
Recorded by Althea McAleer, Beatrix Hoffius, and Deby Nunes for a 1992 book on North Kingstown cemeteries. |
