CommentThis cemetery is located 450 feet north of Blueberry Lane between houses #225 and #230 at telephone pole # 13. It is about fifty feet north of the stone wall. It is thirty feet square, in good condition, with no enclosure, and the historical cemetery sign is in poor condition. There are six burials with two inscribed stones and four fieldstones. James N. Arnold recorded this lot Nov. 19, 1880, his #259, “on land of John G. Clarke north of the above lot [SK 113] beside wall no other protection, lot overrun with brier and white birches. Four small graves at feet with rude stone only.” Recorded by John Sterling and James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
