CommentTranscribed by James N Arnold (Vol 25, pp 310-316). He described lot as follows: "The Mowry Burial yard on the Old Richard Mowry farm north some distance from the school house, lot well walled." Transcribed by Ethel M White, May 23, 1937. A few stones transcribed by Ethel M White - 1932. Transcribed by Ron Farrar who described lot as "Burlingame Road, Mowry Cemetery" Transcribed by Roger Beaudry April 25, 1998. This lot is found by traveling up dirt road opposite pole 25, toward the town water tank. It can be found just before the tank on the left of the road. The sign for this lot is found about 200 feet from the lot along the road leading to it. The entrance gate is quite ornate and in fair condition. Most stones have been pushed over.
