Comment
This lot is located 10 feet east of Lowell Street between telephone poles #6 and #7, 300 yards from the Elkanah Johnson Lot (Coventry Historical Cemetery #70). The cemetery is 75 ft x 45 ft, in fair condition, and has no enclosure. The historic cemetery sign is in poor condition. There are 22 burials with 16 inscribed stones. James N. Arnold visited this lot on 22 Aug. 1905 and noted, “On the Johnson farm near the corner of roads leading to West Greenwich and Spring Lake from Washington; on north side of the wood on side hill, lot fenced, fence and lot in good order” (Vol. 6, Book C, page 1285). Charles and Martha Benns transcribed this cemetery in 1934, their #291b. Recorded by Dr. Bill Eddleman and John Sterling for a 1998 book on Coventry cemeteries
