CommentRichard M. Bayles describes the "Wilbor burial place on Bliss Road" as being "in good order" (History of Newport County, Rhode Island, 1888). At the end of Wilbur Ave. running south from Bliss Rd. south of #6 Wilbur Ave. In 2001 Len DeAngelis has adopted this cemetery and has started to restore it. See Newport Daily News Sect B, p. 1, Wednesday, August 22, 2001. It is next to #6 Wilbur Ave. GPS coordinates 41 deg. 29' 51.32" x 71 deg. 18' 7.44" (WGS84 datum) - map in little yellow notebook.
