Comment
George H. Richardson visited this burial ground on the Freeborn Albro farm, "7/8 mi. south of the house in a field" on 9 Nov. 1898. He commented that the cemetery was on Kirby land and Earle land (Richardson Scrapbook 974 at NHS, p. 31). The 1895 atlas shows Freeborn Albro's property bounded on the north by Bramans Lane, on the east by Wapping Lane, extending west past where Flamingo Lane is 1998, and south perhaps a quarter mile.
