Comment
Denison recorded this lot in 1867: "A little north of the railroad some 4 rods east of the high perpendicular unbroken front of Mr. John R. Macomber's bluff of ledges - being part of his quarry - in the open pasture ground, in a state of sad neglect, are about 30 graves, with rubble headstones and sunken mounds. No inscriptions reveal the names of the moldering generation here reposing. It was formerly regarded as the Carr Ground, but some of this family have been removed to River Bend Cemetery. It is thought some of the Vincent family also lie here, and the hill or bluff of ledges now yielding to the quarryman's hammer, is still called Vincent Hill."
