In pine grove on top of hill 700 ft north of old NEL pole #518, new tel pole #237; just west of New London Turnpike. James Arnold visited this lot 21 Oct 1893. "on the Caleb Shippee farm south of the house in edge of woods, lot badly neglected." James Arnold recorded the slate gs for Judith Bowen Shearman d.1825 in 1893. Blanche Albro did not find her gravestone when she recorded this lot in the 1970s. In 2018 it was found near Boon Lake in Exeter and returned to this cemetery. Blanche Albro recorded this lot in the 1970s. Recorded in 1992 by John Sterling.
