Comment
This cemetery was removed to Riverside cemetery sometime after it was recorded by James N. Arnold on May 5, 1880. This was Arnold’s #124, “a short distance north of the above [SK 34] a burial yard walled and faced also pointed, lot in prime order on land of George May.” It was originally located at the fork in Rockwood Lane just north of SK 34 at GPS coordinates 41º 26.876' x 71º 32.556'. The stone wall is still there and measures 22 feet x 26 feet. Identified, registered, and recorded by John Sterling & James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
