REMOVED TO HIGHLAND/PAWTUXET CEMETERY (WK005)
This burial ground was located in Pawtuxet, but on October 14, 1958 it was removed to the southeast corner of the New Pawtuxet Cemetery. It contained forty-nine burials. James N. Arnold visited this lot 3 Aug. 1890: "In village of Pawtuxet, Warwick side north of the Greenwich Rd. on knoll lot without protection, some of the stones broken and the tomb much out of repair." Grace Tillinghast visited the cemetery 2 Aug. 1932: "South of the Rhodes dance hall, in field." It was 900 ft. north of Post Rd. before the removal. The gravestones are not in their original order, so James N. Arnold's map numbers from 1890 have been used to more nearly replicate the original cemetery's natural order. Those without descriptions or dimensions were not found in 1995 and the data is from the Arnold transcript. Recorded by John Sterling for a 1997 book on Warwick cemeteries.
The map location is approximate.
