Alcott Cemetery: Notes

Alcott Cemetery Sometimes called the Alcott-Havens cemetery, this is a tiny family plot next to the road. Some lists mention the Elling farm, on which it was located.

It is unmaintained and weed-grown, surrounded by the remains of its iron fence. The burial markers all appear to be intact.
