Finch Cemetery

 From Finch Cemetery marker on Sim’s Cross Road approx. 0.9 miles.
There are many unmarked graves and graves marked with fieldstones.
Among the marked graves are Mahala Finch Brown, daughter of William
and Polly Dunn Finch, and her family.  The other known graves belong
to descendants of Etheldred and Elizabeth Finch Drake, also daughter
of William and Polly Dunn Finch.

As was the custom in the 19th Century this cemetery was designated
with a black walnut tree and a huge cedar tree, both of which were
severely damaged in the blizzard of 1993.

Many of the tombstones already have relationships on them. I have
included the other relationships, that I know, in ( ).
