1"This small cemetery is located on a rise of ground on the north side of
Peppermint Road ( close to the highway and opposite Swift River Association, [Gravel Pits] )
about two hundred yards east of of the intersection of Peppermint and Pavement Roads.
Evidence of four burial was found. There is a larger, fenced - in cemetery
just east of this one and on the opposite side of the road.(
Iszardi Cemetery)
2When searched on July 12, 1953, this plot was overgrown and unkept.
No stones were standing.

Mrs. W.C. Roberts1 of Alden, New York apparently searched this cemetery in 1943,
and took off the inscription data at that time. Miss Fanny Jelley of Lancaster, New York
made a copy of the former information, and what follows is a copy of Miss Jelley's
material made by Marlo K. Schermerhorm

Then, on April 1, 1968, Donald C. Keller

and penciled in correction on the report. He also found another tomb stone, for Josephine.

Burials


* Only stones in cemetery.
I paid a visit to this very small road side cemetery on 1 May 2001.
I found one stone that had fallen and
laid flat on the ground, along with two small pieces to another stone.
The cemetery is maintained by the Town of Lancaster.
