CommentThis cemetery is located two hundred feet east of Glen Rock Road north of the grist mill, 4/10 mile from the bridge. It is one hundred feet in front of the house at #197 Glen Rock Road, between it and the road. It is 65 feet x 70 feet, in good condition, enclosed with a stone wall. There is no historical cemetery sign. James N. Arnold recorded this lot Nov. 18, 1880, his #251, “on land of Carey D. Slocum beside road north of Usquepaug Village and between it and the river a burial yard of his family lot walled though somewhat neglected.” Found, registered, and recorded by John Sterling & James Wheaton for a 2004 book on South Kingstown cemeteries.
