Harlow-Savery Cemetery, Old Sandwich Road, Plymouth, Massachusetts 02360, is
located in
the South Plymouth (Cedarville) section of the town.
The graveyard was established at least as early as 1806.
Directions: Going south on Route 3, exit at #2. Take a right at the end of the
ramp onto Herring Pond Road. At the stop sign, take a left onto Route 3A
(Manomet Road). Travel about 3 miles. Take a left onto Old Sandwich Road (dirt
road). The cemetery is immediately on the right behind an iron fence.
Transcriptions by Mary Aguilar on 06/17/02.
Dates appear from the earliest (1806) to the latest (1962), although unmarked
mounds and depressions in the earth may be actual graves of unknown date.
Interesting note:
There were no "SAVERY" surnames found in this cemetery.

********************************************************************************
These stones are transcribed as accurately as possible. Spellings are as they
appear on the stone. Where I have typed a question mark in a parenthesis "(?)"
means that I am not able to determine exactly what is engraved on the stone, but
have taken an educated guess: e.g., "1853(?)" means "It appears to 1853"; or
"BURGESS(?)" means "It appears to be BURGESS." A question mark without a
parenthesis "?" simply means that an alpha or numeric in a word or date cannot
be exactly ascertained but again, an educated guess is made: "185?" means
"eighteen-hundred-and-fifty-something"; or "Born ? 7, 1853" means "born on the
7th in an unreadable month in 1853"; or "? BURGESS" means "unreadable given name
BURGESS".
The stones are in poor-to-excellent condition, some shattered,
broken, buried, lichen-covered or worn with age, making it difficult, if not
impossible, to transcribe. Note that there appear to be several unmarked
gravesites. Also important to note is that I am extremely careful to ensure
that NO STONES ARE DAMAGED DURING THIS PROJECT.
