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.

Described for Maine Old Cemetery Association (MOCA) transcription project in fall 1975 by Katerine W. Trickey & Robert C. Wetzler as located at "29 Blackstrap Road. The old Quaker Church, built in 1740 stood on this ground. In Fall, 1975, there were no stones standing; two were lying flat, quite a ways from the road in the woods."

The Quaker Cemetery is on once owned Pride family property (29 Blackstrap Road). The first house built by the Quakers in 1740 was there, and a larger Quaker Meeting House, built in 1752, stood near this site. In 1975, a search by Society members Sarah and Arthur O'Brien discerned the names Davis, Winslow and Lambert on some of the 30 to 40 gravestones. There were many unnamed fieldstones. Cemetery records name only the Knight, Lowell, Snell and Winslow family names. The oldest burial recorded was Benjamin Winslow, born 1780, buried in 1843, 62y 8m.
