In the woods east of Sheldrake Cemetery. There is no sign and the site is overgrown and the ground uneven. There are a few fallen stones. I could read "Grove" on one and "Neal" on the other. The rest are most likely buried.

Two stones still stand in the center of the grove. Samuel Ingersoll and his wife, Jerusha.

Ovid historian, Gail Snyder, has planned a spring 2013 restoration providing funds become available.
