James Arnold visited this lot 28 Aug. 1892 and noted, “on the farm of late Jeremiah Foster west of his house well walled” (Vol. 1, p. 281). Arnold also visited WK122, “separated by a wall from Foster/Kenyon lot.” This cemetery was recorded by Charles and Martha Benns in 1939, their #841.
Many of the dates on the gravestones in this cemetery are in Quaker format.
