DESCRIPTION:

This old family burying ground close to the ancestral home of the Baldwin family 
contains a number of graves, though only one is marked.  This grave is covered 
with a heavy marble slab, which is supported by a brick wall.  The grave is also 
enclosed by an iron fence.  The other graves are out side of the fence.  The 
marble slab is badly cracked and the entire plot neglected.  All the trees have 
been cut, and the land cultivated as close to the graves as “the law allows”.

HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE:

The following inscription was copied from the slab:


In Memory of
Martha A. Baldwin
Born Oct. 25, 1814
Married Albert Baldwin
Nov. 25, 1829
And died
