Comment
On unnamed lane off Lafayette Rd. Enter land acros from pole 650 43. Continue along land which curves to left to house. There are no grave markers, only a 20' x 20' area delineated by stones. An old historical cemetery marker now unreadable is lying on the ground. This is thought to be an Indian burial site, perhaps of a family, according to a spokesman of the Narragansett Indian Tribe. Recorded by Althea McAleer, Beatrix Hoffius, and Deby Nunes for a 1992 book on North Kingstown cemeteries.
