Published Amenia, NY 1903

This burying ground is in Kent, but near the Sharon line. Some Sharon people are buried there, and for that reason it is included among the Sharon cemeteries.

There are as many, and perhaps more, graves without headstones as with, and no record has been kept to show who are buried in them. The ground is kept in fair condition, but several headstones have fallen flat to the ground.
