Location.

Directions. From the intersection of Routes 3 and 102/198 at the north end of Mount Desert Island (just after you cross the bridge from Thompson Island), go straight ahead (south) onto Routes 102/198. In approximately 1.6 miles on the left is the entrance to a KOA Campground, on whose property the cemetery is located. Inquire at the office for permission to enter the campground and for directions to the cemetery.

History.

Notes. This cemetery is (1999) in very poor condition. It is completely ignored and overgrown, with no discernable boundary markers. There are likely more stones here, either below ground or obscured by vegetation.
