Comment
This lot is located 75 feet west of Williams Crossing Road at telephone pole #2. This lot is 45 ft x 30 ft, in fair condition, and has no enclosure. There are nine burials with two inscribed stones. These marble stones were located with a probe and unearthed in 1995. James N. Arnold visited this lot on 24 Jul. 1905 and noted, “On Lemuel J. Winser farm, former Stephen Stone place, near house lot fenced, but fence is down and covered with dense weeds” (Vol. 6, Book A, page 995). Found, registered and recorded by Dr. Bill Eddleman and John Sterling for a 1998 book on Coventry cemeteries.
