Comment | This cemetery is located 380 feet north of Hundred Acres Pond Road. Drive to end of the road (north end of Hundred Acre Pond), and the cemetery is 380 feet from the last driveway entrance. Walk down drive until reaching a stone wall on the left. Follow the stone wall north about three hundred feet to the cemetery. It is 35 feet x 80 feet, in fair condition, enclosed with a stone wall. There is no historical cemetery sign. There are 25 burials, nine marked with inscribed stones and sixteen marked with plain fieldstones
