Comment
Half way up Metcalf drive at #375 Mail Road toward house, at edge of tree line, about 200 feet west from drive. In the Arnold records of 1909 this lot is described as "on the Daniel Nichols Farm, formerly Jeremiah Tripp, east of the Tripp'sCorner School House, back of the house unprotected." The James Patterson stone that is in EX109 today was here in 1909 when Arnold visited. This cemetery was found, registered and recorded by John Sterling & James Good for their 1994 book on Exeter cemeteries.
