Comment
This cemetery is east of Metaterrine Avenue off Route #1 at telephone pole # 4612. It is on the east side of first driveway on the left. It is 55 feet x 45 feet, in excellent condition, enclosed with a stone wall, and the historical cemetery sign is in fair condition. There are seventeen burials with six inscribed stones and eleven fieldstones. James N. Arnold visited this lot Oct. 13, 1880, his #183, “on land of Thomas Clark north of his house lot walled in good condition, wall pointed and faced.” Recorded by John Sterling and James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
