CommentOn south side of Essex Rd, behind 201 across from Potowomut Road. Right of way to burial yard is east of house, opposite Potowomut Rd. Warner lot is separated from Very Lot [NK130] by a granite post and iron rail fence. A split rail fence was put around this lot in 1992 to keep out the farm animals and most stones were set back up. In 1993 Mary Reynolds and 3 Very children's stones were found by probing and reset. Mary's stone was repaired with CP Bond epoxy by John Sterling. James Arnold recorded this lot March 28, 1883, his #131, "On land of _____ a short distance south east of house a burial yard with protection"
