CommentThis lot is located 600 feet north of Town Farm Road at telephone pole # 36. Follow the access road just west of the house at #672 Town Farm Road to the cemetery. The cemetery is 65 ft x 65 ft, in good condition, and enclosed with a metal fence with a chain gate. The historic sign is in good condition. There are 33 burials with 25 inscribed stones. James N. Arnold visited this yard on 19 August 1904 and noted, “On Salisbury farm and in sight of his saw mill in a pasture protected and in good order” (Vol. 6, Book H, page 1342). Recorded by Dr. Bill Eddleman and John Sterling for a 1998 book on Coventry cemeteries
