Comment
At edge of pasture with wall on north and west sides. Dennison describes the location in 1867 as "in the northwestern section of the town, on lands of Samuel Peckham, Esq., east of the road leading into Charlestown, in the northeastern corner of an orchard lot, without enclosure, and densely covered with vines and bushes, are a few graves, some having broken headstones. We can only read from two."
