Comment This cemetery is located 50 ft south of Old East Avenue at telephone pole #356, just west of Quinlan Court and 30 feet east of the Westcott-Brown Lot (WK018). It is 50 ft x 30 ft, in good condition, enclosed with granite posts and iron rails. The historical cemetery sign is in good condition. There are 25 burials with two inscribed stones and 17 fieldstones. It is on the tax assessor’s map, Plat #257, Lot #172. James Arnold visited this lot 18 Sept. 1893 and noted, “open lot near Westcott’s Corner, not protected, neglected” (Vol. 2, p. 463). Recorded by John Sterling for a book on Warwick cemeteries.
