CommentThis cemetery was located 2000 ft east of Bald Hill Road and North of East Avenue, 30 ft southeast of building ‘A’ of the Del Rio Apartments, next to the Warwick Mall. It shows on the geological survey map, East Greenwich quadrant. It contained 21 burials with one inscribed stone and 20 fieldstones. James Arnold visited this lot 18 Sep. 1893 and commented, “east of the Bowen-Baker Lot [WK089], in a pasture on the side of a hill” (Vol. 2, p. 457). Found, registered and recorded by John Sterling for a book on Warwick cemeteries.
