Surrounded by a quarry, this cemetery appears to be long forgotten by anybody. I found a couple of grave stones, but on the Kelly's was legible. John Kelly died in 1883 and his wife Elizabeth died in 1895. He is most notable for being the son of William Kelly who was the builder of the Marblehead lighthouse. The cemetery can be accessed by a 100 foot wide easement from Hartshorn Road.
I could not find much information about the cemetery on the internet other than a reference in the Danberry Township Board of Trustees meeting where they acknowledge that it is abandoned and not their responsibility to care for it.
Earliest Burial: 04/18/1883
