Located 425 feet north of Gilbert Stuart Rd, on west side of Pettaquamscutt River, behind the Gilbert Stuart Birthplace. Path well marked by signs "Indian Burial Ground" (note: it's not an Native American cemetery). Site roughly enclosed by timber fence, clear of brush, but trees intrude. On 15 March, 1880, his #20, Arnold viewed this lot and described it thus: "In bend of river just north of Hammond's Mill, west side lot overgrown with oak is a cemetery of the Burlingame family. Lot unprotected graves marked with rude stones only. We counted 7 large and 3 small graves and think the plow has destroyed others. These are among the earliest settlers of Kingstown." Burgess in the 1930's: "Only fieldstone, but Mr. Vose told me it was a Burlingame Lot." In January 1990, 10 fieldstone graves found. Recorded for 1992 book on North Kingstown cemeteries.
