Yard much overgrown with briers and brush, stones broken and down." She also notes at the end of her transcription that: "last burial - Mary A Pratt wife of William A Pratt July 2, 1906. Mr Irving Whipple who lives in large gray house at end of road (at turn or curve) left hand side, said cemetery had been abandoned and he had removed his relations to Chepachet Acotes Hill."
