Old Burying Ground

Reads: "Old Burying Ground 1771 - Removed to Riverside Cemetery 1850-1896"
So tell me what's wrong with this picture? No graves. The graves that existed here in the 18th and early 19th century were moved, as the sign indicates, in 1850.
This memorial park is at the juncture of Walnut and William Street in Fairhaven - where Fort Street begins. And although the folks that were interred here were moved over 150 years ago, the town has kept it in preservation as a peaceful park.

I won't cite conspiracy theories in regards to some remains being left behind - this was probably not a Quaker burial ground (the Fairhaven Quakers were on Bridge Street), so it's likely that every"body" was accounted for - but it's still a peaceful spot, and some would consider it consecrated grounds - all reasons to include it in my portfolio of nifty SouthCoast cemeteries.
