Harlow-Wright Cemetery

"The ground for this cemetery was donated to the public at large, June 3, 1873 by Tubal C. Brock, and Martha J. Brock, his wife. The deed was acknowledged by J.H. Wolfington, Justice of the Peace. The cemetery has variously been known as Harlow cemetery and Wright cemetery, since families of those named resided nearby. The old Harlow house stood for years just south of the cemetery. The complete list of burials is impossible to tabulate since the records are in hands unknown. Only the tombstones can be used to chronicle the names of the dead. Unmarked graves are in oblivion."1
