CommentThis cemetery is located 650 feet west of Rodman Street at telephone pole # 3295, on the property of Milton and Leona Kelley. It is fifty by thirty feet, in good condition, with no enclosure, and the historical cemetery sign is in fair condition. There are thirteen burials with eleven inscribed stones and two fieldstones. James N. Arnold visited this lot Aug. 2, 1880, his #110, “a few steps northeast from the above yard [SK150] we find another burial yard picket fenced and surrounded with evergreens in prime order.” Recorded by John Sterling and James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
