Comment | Transcribed by James N Arnold, Sept 19, 1919, (Vol 25, pp254-259). He described lot as follows:
"On the Aaron Mowry farm so called anciently, now owned by Mr Williams, back from the road north of the Greenville factory, lot picketed, and wants repairing, lot very much neglected."
Transcribed by Charles & Martha Benns (Vol III page 362). They assigned it number 441 and referred to it as "Mowry family, West Greenville."
Transcribed by Ron Farrar who described lot as "Austin Ave"
Transcribed by Roger Beaudry February 22, 1997. A part of the cemetery shows some signs of clearing, but the majority of it is still badly overgrown. No stones were found standing, all were down and/or broken. Although lot was once surrounded by an ornate iron fence, it is badly rusted and down.
Lot may be found by following a road adjacent to old St Peter's School. Where road turns sharpely to the left continue straight into woods. Follow stone wall about 100 feet until you come to lot. |
