CommentLocated 120 feet north of the end of Chaplin Drive. It is 350 feet east of the Pawcatuck River. Rev. Frederic Denison recorded this lot in 1867-8: "This is found on the lands of William R. Chapman, Esq. on the point of land running into the Pawcatuck, south of Lottery Village, and called Graves's Neck. Here lie the first generations of the Pendleton family, but without inscribed tombstones. The remains of some of the former generations, however, appear to have been removed to other grounds. The spot is inclosed by a wall, but the wall is in a state of neglect. Numerous graves, large and small, are marked by rough, unlettered stones." end of Champlin Road.
