This is a public cemetery owned by the Town of Stockbridge. The tree is located on the way into the cemetery. This tree was listed on the DNR Champion Tree web site but it had not been measured in many years. Currently the web site is under reconstruction so it can not be viewed. Search "WI Champion Trees" to see if the new web site is up and running. I measured this tree today, 9-24-12, and it came out to a total score of 475. That is just one point out of third place on the latest info from the DNR web site.
