Comment
Off Maxwell Drive; lot no longer visible. At pole 3 on Maxwell Drive, turn left along the old Sea View Railroad line. The lot is buried under the lawn of the last house on the left. According to the present owner, all the stones were flat, and her father became tired of maintaining the stones against the encroaching sod. It is said that the shadows of the stones are still visible from the 2nd story. James Arnold recorded this yard July 31, 1883, his #158, "east of this yard (NK015) and near the fence we find another burial yard now in good order and well fenced."
