Comment
Transcribed by James N Arnold (Vol 25 p116). He describes it as follows: "A short distance North West from the above yard (SM043), in the woods, is a burial yard with field stones only, no protection to yard. Some thoughtful person has placed a granite block here on the face of which is the following." Transcribed by Ethel M. White who describes it as: "On same farm* large granite monument surrounded by field stone graves in the woods unprotected" Transcibed by Ron Farrar who describes it as follows: "Large granite stone, N.W. of Barnes Cemetery" Registered by Roger Beaudry September 1996. Transcribed by Roger Beaudry March 9, 1997. Lot consists of an open area approximately 100' North West of SM043. Only one large granite stone is engraved, and it is flanked on two sides by fieldstone markers. These markers may be the burial spot for the people named on large stone.
