Comment
Located 40 feet southwest of Birchwood Drive between house #71 and House #59. The west wall is part of a long boundary stone wall. It is forty by eighty feet, in fair condition, enclosed with a stone wall. There is no historical cemetery sign. This cemetery has three large marble gravestones. This cemetery was recorded in 1935 by Charles and Martha Benns and again in 1979 by the Pettaquamscutt Historical Society. Both commented on heavy briar growth, but it has been cleared since the houses were built on each side of it. It was not recorded by James N. Arnold in 1880. Found, registered, and recorded by John Sterling & James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
