CommentThis cemetery is located 325 feet west of Sand Turn Road at telephone pole #4 / 3588.5, and behind the house at #88 Sand Turn Road. It is forty feet square, in good condition, with no enclosure, and there is no historical cemetery sign. There are six burials with one inscribed stone and five fieldstones. James N. Arnold recorded this lot Nov. 16, 1880 his #243, “on land of Mr. Luke Clarke in open lot yard covered with briars and white birch a burial yard of the Sherman family, lot poorly protected, southwest from Arnold Slocum’s house across open lot east side of wood.” Found, registered, and recorded by John Sterling & James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
