Comment | Located one hundred feet south of Liberty Lane at telephone pole # 9205/80, this unenclosed cemetery is thirty feet by fifty feet, in fair condition, and the historical cemetery sign is missing. This cemetery is east of Route #2 and across Liberty Lane from the Stone House. To reach this cemetery, enter at the barway in a stone wall opposite NEL pole #9205/80, and go one hundred feet south. There are twelve burials, eleven marked by marble gravestones and one by a fieldstone.
James N. Arnold visited this yard Nov. 9, 1880, his #230, “on land of John G. Clarke southwest of his house on opposite side of road, yard slightly protected a burial yard of his family.”
Recorded by John Sterling and James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries. |
