CommentThis cemetery is located six hundred feet south of Mooresfield Road, Route #138, at telephone pole #3514/27. It is 375 feet east of Wayside Meadow Road. It is west of the Fagnant driveway that runs south from Mooresfield Road in a field about one half a mile west of Tower Hill Road. It is 85 feet x 80 feet, in fair condition, enclosed with a stone wall with an iron gate. The historical cemetery sign is in good condition. There are 39 burials with 29 inscribed stones and ten fieldstones. James N. Arnold visited this lot May 16, 1880, his #99, “on land of Elisha G. Sherman’s heirs a distance southeast of the house in lot recently walled with double faces stone wall.” Recorded by John Sterling and James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
