Comment
This cemetery was discovered and recorded on December 24, 1992. It is to the rear of 2000 Providence Pike behind a home owned by Mr & Mrs Steven Biron. Mr Biron was a childhood friend of Roger Beaudry, and told him of the cemetery found on his land when his home was built in the late 1980's. It turned out that the cemetery was not recorded either by the state in the 1970 survey or by Irene Nebiker in her survey of the early 1970s. Mr & Mrs Biron have restored the lot and take care to maintain it, and have reset the stones that were down. This cemetery was named by Roger Beaudry, the Baker Lot, for obvious reasons. The cemetery itself is surrounded on two sides by stone walls and on two sides with granite posts with missing rails. Transcribed by Ron Farrar circa 1970.
