Gate
Cemetery
Chesterfield, Massachusetts
Located only 1/2 mile up Ireland St. on the left
side of the road, this old cemetery is surrounded by a high stone
wall and a three beam gate closes the front from the street.
There are many, many old stones here, too worn and weatherbeaten
to read. Large rocks are stewn about the cemetery and the woods
around the three sides away from the street are thick and plush.
Mrs. Lederer gives this description in her
transcriptions:
"First Highland Street Cemetery. Cemetery
beyond West Chesterfield - two miles toward South Worthington *
same road as Robinson lot."
