Historic Cemetery Coventry Rhode Island 36/37 (34 is just across the street) 41d43m02.2s71d39m10.2s |
| Also saw a Historic Cemetery of no importance to us ( that I

collect them all :)
Situate Historical Cemetery. # 86 Plus I think I saw one on rt102/14 by 'old Plainfield pike' but I was done for the day with exploring. |
