Comment | This cemetery is located 25 feet west of Holly Road at telephone pole #19 / 6738, on the south side lawn of house at #218 Holly Road. It is 130 feet south of Birch Road. This is the far southwest corner of town, north of Green Hill Pond. It is thirty feet square, in good condition, with no enclosure and no historical cemetery sign. It contains five burials with one inscribed marble stone and four fieldstones, three large and one small according to James N. Arnold.
James N. Arnold visited this lot Oct. 8, 1880, his #150, “north of the above [Arnold’s #149, a fieldstone marked lot for John Congdon, his wife and children, now lost, SK A19 formerly known as SK 534] a short distance in open pasture entirely unprotected.”
Found, registered, and recorded by John Sterling & James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries. |
