Captain Joshua Fisk - Natick, MA - American Revolutionary War Veteran Graves on Waymarking.com

In Natick's northern part is the North Cemetery, which is where several American Revolutionary War veterans are buried, including this one for Captain Joshua Fisk.

The cemetery is located on the east side of MA Route 27, about 0.4 miles from the intersection with Mass. Route 9. It is probably better to park in the Dunkin' Donuts store just to the north, then walk down. The grave is among other slate graves near the sidewalk, about 2/3 of the way down.
