===============================================
Location: 75ft west of Irving Rd. at telephone pole #4
Tax Assessors Map: Plat #289 Lot #551
100 ft x 200 no enclosure
34 burials with 22 inscriptions from 1822 to 1862
Transcribed by:
[1] Arnold [10 Aug 1891; Vol. 4, Pg. 87]: "At Lakewood on the north side of the Greenwich Rd. and west of the Warwick Branch Road, in plain sight of both, a burial yard showing neglect, both fence and yard."
In 1994 this burial ground was almost totally destroyed and all but five of the stones were believed to be missing. In 2008 the Historical Society did a thorough clean-up and it was discovered that most of the stones from the 1891 transcription were still there, including the Battey Family tomb. The missing Chace Family stones are assumed to have been relocated to another family lot in North Kingstown. - SuperKentman
