Bates Mills Cemetery is located on S. ERHKE Rd., Blue Anchor, Winslow Township, Camden Co. NJ There was alot of very very old stones that had very faded initials only. The stones appear to be made from Iron ore. As soon as I find who's in charge of this, I will see if they have any kind of records on these stones. They also appear to be from the Rev. War period, one stone was readable, had the initials B. B., along with a tarnished star with the name BENJAMIN BATES: REV WAR engraved on the back.
