She describes lot as: "Newell and Sayles burial grounds on reservoir owned by Woonsocket Water Works. Turning from Louisquissett Pike - Route 146 - Town of Lincoln. On Reservoir Road. Granite posts with iron rails, well kept." Transcribed by Irene Nebiker in early 1970's Transcribed by Ron Farrar who described lot as follows: "Reservoir Road" Transcribed by Roger Beaudry November 23, 1996. At NEL #41 proceed north about 2/10 of a mile. Enter woods where road takes a sharp turn to the right. Head toward the reservoir. You will find lot about 450 feet in close to shore of reservoir.
