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.

This cemetery was established in 1791. There are 99 people buried here, all members of the defunct Tyringham Shaker community.

The cemetery is owned by the town of Tyringham. It is identified by the town Assessors on map 204 lot 16. The map shows the "right of way" between Jerusalem Road and the cemetery. It measures, roughly, 75ft by 95ft.

This burial ground is referenced to in the book "A guide to Berkshire County Massachusetts Cemeteries" Published by the Berkshire Family History Association in 1988 and is on the Tyringham map as #6. It states "It is beyond the Shaker buildings, down an embankment on the right. Surrounded by a stone wall, there are no upright stones. Cemetery has been allowed to be overgrown to protect it from vandalism.".
