This lot is 2000 ft. west of Nick Whitford Trail. Go about 1/2 mile south of Perry Hill Rd. on the trail to an old house ruin. Take the trail to the right (west) about 3/8 mile to just the other side of the drainage (where the trail runs close to Whitford Pond). The cemetery is about 1000 ft. south of the trail, overlooking the pond, and about 250 ft. west of the main north arm of the pond. The cemetery is 30 ft. x 30 ft., in good condition, and has no enclosure. There are eleven burials, eight marked by fieldstones. James N. Arnold visited this cemetery on 16 Aug. 1905: "On the Cornell farm a distance from the Whitford farm, on knoll in midst of pine grove, all marked by fieldstones. Graves unknown." Found, registered, and recorded by Dr. Bill Eddleman and John Sterling for a 1998 book on Coventry cemeteries.
