CommentThis cemetery is located two hundred forty feet south of Liberty Lane at telephone pole # 6750 and 130 feet east of Holly Ridge Road. Follow the driveway to #910 Liberty Road, and the cemetery will be found on the left or east side of the drive. It is forty feet square, in good condition, enclosed with a stone wall with unusual steps built into the wall. The historical cemetery sign was missing at the time of our visit. There are fourteen inscribed stones. James N. Arnold visited this yard Nov. 9, 1880, his #226, “on land of Jabez Perkins east of his house a burial yard of his family fenced only.” Recorded by John Sterling and James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
