Comment
Located 1050 feet east of Tunk Hill Road beside a dirt road within the restricted reservoir area. Reservoir map A13-#858, photo #676 James N. Arnold recorded this lot 22 Oct, 1904 (Vol. 5, pg. 317), "on the Capt. Jonathan Knight farm lot well walled but yard neglected. At north side there is a large grave with another at feet with fieldstones and perhaps there may have been others whose markers have disappeared." Recorded by Charles & Martha Benns in 1940, their #984. They identified several of the unmarked graves.
