Rhode Island Historical Cemetery, Lincoln #20
Location: 20 ft north of Jenckes Hill Rd. at telephone pole #24
19 burials with 13 inscriptions from 1858 to 1985
30ft x 40ft in good condition enclosed with granite posts and iron rails
Surveyed by:
[1] James N Arnold [Vol 15, pg 8] "On the Rufus Jenckes farm beside road, granite posts and iron rails, in fine order." [2] Emma B Shaw [1926, Arnold Vol 15 on pg. 135]:"Jenckes Hill on road (right hand side) going over the hill, past the Bradley Farm."
[3] Ethel M White [1930's]
[4] Charles and Martha Benns [#424, Vol III pg. 353] "from Providence Journal May 24, 1935- "In Lincoln, May 22nd, Mary Elizabeth, widow of Rufus Jenckes, in her 95th year. Funeral services at the residence, Smith A Jenckes, Jenckes Hill Road, Saturday, May 25th, at 2:30 p.m."
[5] Dr Frank T Calef [Lot #21, pp. 55-56]: "Just west of the Bradley place on the North side of the road."
[6] Roger Beaudry [Jan 21, 1995] "lot was in fair condition with only overgrown weeds and some downed iron rails to mar the beauty of the lot. A strange feature of this lot is that is completely enclosed by posts and rails, there is no gate or opening to gain entrance. The downed iron rails may have been taken down to gain entrance for the recent burials. Another feature is the abundance of new burials in this lot. It appears that some of the older stones were also replaced with new granite stones."
