CommentThis cemetery is located 80 feet south of Oak Hurst Trail in a relatively new subdivision (2008). It is on the side yard of #155 Oak Hurst Trail. Patricia Bodine trekked into this huge pasture, 3000' ft. south of Union St., 1800' south of cemetery #32 on 14 Feb. 1976 for CETA. She found fencing mostly down, stones broken and disarrayed. Of six slate stones she was able to read only two, a headstone and footstone for a single individual. Documented in 1999 by Ralph Jenkins. Letty Champion photographed the gravestones in 2008, one a beautiful gravestones for Priscilla Clarke by John Bull of Newport.
