CommentLocated 150 feet south of Timothy Drive, just east of #33 Timothy Drive. Rev. Frederic Denison recorded this lot in 1867-8: "On the lands of Burrell Thompson Esq, south of his residence, east of Pawcatuck Rock, in the corner of a meadow, inclosed by a wall, and shaded by a few trees, are several ancient graves. The ground was first consecrated by the Denison family. Numerous graves are without inscriptions." Recorded by John Sterling in 1991.
