Fuller Hill Burial Ground

This burial ground is believed to be located on Old County Road (Town Highway #14) and is believed to have been obliterated during logging operations some years ago. The land owner and I climbed to the area and we did find one fieldstone that appeared to the "Jac" in small (maybe 1 inch) letters and "F" in a larger size (maybe 3 inch) letter. Since there was a large pile of debris covering the area, no other traces of stones was found.
