CommentThis cemetery is 50 feet southwest of Freedom Trail Lane opposite Rebels Way. This is 800 ft down Freedom Trail Lane which leads to the Noviate of Our Lady of Hope. Stone walls on east and south sides and 3 stone posts on west. Transcribed by Patricia Bodine of CETA 10 Sept. 1975 (she found 11 stones too worn to read), by Ian Kohl (IK) in 1989, and by John Sterling (JES) on 14 Apr. 1998. 5 gravestones were photographed by Letty Champion in 2008. These are beautiful slate stones carved in Newport by the Stevens and John Bull shops.
