About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

AKA:
Rhode Island Historical Cemetery Middletown #29

Location: This cemetery has not been located: G H Richardson described this lot as "Barker Burying Ground, near north end of Hanging Rocks".

25 burials with 3 inscriptions from 1778 to 1778

Note: This Lot is located somewhere on the homestead of James Barker [1675-1759] and Mary Cook [1679-1758]. It is highly probable that they and and many of their descendants occupy the 22 unidentified graves. The property came into the posession of their great-grandson Isaac Barker: 2 of the identified graves are those of his first-born daughter and wife.
