Of note in the cemetary is the grave of Deborah Lincoln (great-grandaunt of President Abraham Lincoln) On May 15, 1720, three-year-old "little Debbie" died of a childhood disease.
This is the oldest grave that I could find in the burial ground.
The most recent burial seems to be 1904 is indicated by a veterans. grave.
The coordinate will led you to Deborah Lincoln's grave. The actual burial ground is located about 200ft from the road. Conveniently, there is a marker along the road (Rt. 524) where you can find parking.
The path to the burial ground is in the north-west corner of the parking area.
