Cedarville Cemetery, Herring Pond Road, Plymouth, Massachusetts 02360, is in the 
Cedarville section of Plymouth.  

The cemetery was established at least as early as 1821.  

Directions:  Going south on Route 3, exit left at #2 toward White Cliffs.  Take 
a left onto Herring Pond Road.  The cemetery is conspicuously located about 1/2 
mile on the left.
  
Transcriptions by Mary Aguilar on 07/20/02.
 
Dates appear from the earliest (1821) to the latest (2002), although crude 
gavesites marked only with raw, uncut stones, and unmarked depressions in the 
earth may be actual graves of unknown date. 

*Note:  This cemetery was transcribed prior to the destructive vandalism that 
occurred in late fall of 2002.

These stones are transcribed as accurately as possible.  Spellings are as they 
appear on the stone.  There appears to be only one instance of a name spelling 
error:  ("Louise" is spelled "Louis").   Where I have typed a question mark in a 
parenthesis "(?)" means that I am not able to determine exactly what is engraved 
on the stone, but have taken an educated guess:  e.g., "1853(?)" means "It 
appears to 1853".  A question mark without a parenthesis "?" simply means that 
an alpha or numeric in a word or date cannot be exactly ascertained but again, 
an educated guess is made:  "185?" means "eighteen-hundred-and-fifty-something"; 
or "Born ? 7, 1853" means "born on the 7th in an unreadable month in 1853"; or 
"? CORNISH" means "unreadable given name CORNISH".   Most of the stones are in 
good-to-excellent condition; however, some older stones are broken, worn from 
age, chipped, eroded, buried, obliterated from repair, or missing, making it 
difficult, if not impossible, to transcribe.   Using only water, I was able to 
clean some stones with limited success.  According to an elderly gentleman who 
identified himself as "Gerald, self proclaimed keeper of the cemetery", this 
cemetery has recently been the target of vandals.  He noted that several urns 
have disappeared and some stones appear to have been "moved around", although he 
could not identify them.  (See *Note, above.)  Finally, important to note is 
that I am extremely careful to ensure that NO STONES ARE DAMAGED DURING THIS 
PROJECT.
