HISTORICAL CEMETERY #: NK061 ALLEN LOT NORTH KINGSTOWN RI
Location: 500 ft 495 GILBERT STUART ROAD at TEL pole # 3957
12 burials
30 ft x 35 ft in very poor condition; sign ???
NOTE: Gilbert Stuart Rd, in field behind #495, a large old farmhouse, the William Pierce
farm. Burial yard lies 500' down a long driveway at the rear of the house. Clump of cedars
in field on left marks lot. It is on a mound, some brush, many large animal holes, sign
standing. Harris visited here on 5 April 1880, at that time on land of Peleg F. Pierce,
west of his house and near wood, an ancient Allen burial yard, unprotected. At that time
he was able to count 18 fieldstones, 3 rudely marked. Burgess, in the 1930's, has this
note: On a knoll in a meadow, a dozen or more graves, all fieldstones, one of which bears
the date 1745. Norman Isham told Burgess this place was the home of an Allen, who settled
here after a quarrel at the homestead. Although he saw no marks in it, Walter's daughter
showed him what she said was another graveyard a few feet north of the first. It was probably for slaves. 1990: unable to do adequate survey due to animal dens.
