Other Comments: On State Land, north side of Rte. 6. Probably the first cemetery of the Furmans before the one at Furmantown was made in about 1844.  All the graves we have located run in a line from Rte. 6 up the hill perpendicular to the road.  All are marked by Field Stones.  Only 2 markers have yielded information so far
