Witherell Cemetery
Chesterfield, Massachusetts


Located at the side of a very small road, 2.3 miles down South Road from the center of Chesterfield, just three stones mark this easily missed resting place, overgrown with ferns. Up and over a stone wall on the right side of the road is the small graveyard. There is some evidence of other headstones perhaps being here (broken stones that appear to have been headstones, although without apparent carvings) and there may in fact be more graves, now unmarked.
