Ralph Hillman's Note: There are quite likely one or two other small family cemeteries that have been lost from memory. If anyone finds these locations I would like to know. A Barker Cemetery is quite likely east of Barker Road in the woods about at the junction of Bishop Road. A Bennett Cemetery was somewhere along the east shore of Unity Pond west of Smart's Corner. [Check] DeLorme's The Maine Atlas and Gazetteer for names of roads and locations. I have data from most of these cemeteries if people wish to contact me.
