Nestled next to the First Unitarian Church at 0 Church St, the Old Burying Ground of Cambridge runs along Massachusetts Avenue and Garden Street. Buried here are many notable Cantabrigians. The marker lies along the fence adjacent to Massachusetts Avenue, and reads:

"Old Burying Ground - Burial place of old settlers, tory landowners and slaves, soldiers, presidents of Harvard, and prominent men of Cambridge."
