This small family cemetery is located on the west side of Rte. 11 between 
Co. Rte. 41-A & Drybridge Road on private property.

The Holmes family settled on this land in the early 1800's. The fmaily 
burial ground is surrounded by a stone wall but is not maintained.

Virginia Ackerman and I transcribed all existing tombstones in this cemetery 
when we visited it on Oct 03, 2002.
