CommentThis cemetery is located 15 ft west of Houston Drive at telephone pole #8. The cemetery is 100 ft x 100 ft, surrounded by granite posts that at one time had chains connecting them. In the southeast corner is a 50 ft x 50 ft plot (designated section ‘A’) surrounded by granite posts and iron rails with a fine iron gate. It contains 70 burials with 33 inscribed stones and 25 fieldstones. It is on the tax assessor’s map, Plat #369, Lot #200. Arnold visited this lot 11 Oct. 1891 and commented, “on the Budlong farm near the Buttonwoods yard, neglected with iron rails and granite posts” (Vol. 3, p. 202). Charles and Martha Benns recorded this lot in 1935, their #452. Recorded by John Sterling for a book on Warwick cemeteries.
