Cemetery History

The land for this cemetery was donated and dedicated for use as a cemetery by Abigail and Robert Doak, in memory of their son George W Doak in 1829.

This cemetery was repaired by members of the Doak family at their own expense. It was fenced off and is bordered by a farmer's field. A wall made of brick was erected in 1983 and the old stones embedded in the wall. Some of the bricks in the wall have begun to crumble already.
