CommentThis cemetery is located six hundred feet south of Curtis Corner Road at telephone pole # 3390 / 61, behind #700 Curtis Corner Road. Cross the field behind the house, and go up the hill to the pine trees by the cemetery. It is also possble to reach this cemetery from South Road. Go to the house at the end of Farrells Way (at 792 South Road). The cemetery is 225 feet southwest of the garage of this house. You will cross a stone wall to get there. It is 65 feet x 40 feet, in good condition. The Goddard monument is enclosed with granite posts and iron rails, but there is no enclosure around the Gardner monument or the fieldstones. There is no historical cemetery sign. It contains fifteen burials with eleven inscribed stones and four fieldstones. Found, registered, and recorded by John Sterling & James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
