Description	:	Ancient Friends Cemetery for the West Falmouth Quaker Community established in 1685. No markers are now visible. In the year 1900 at least 69 graves were identified, apparently by the presense of simple stones. At that time it was estimated that about 100 graves might actually be present, and a boulder was also inscribed with "Friends Cemetery 1685 - 69 graves". The grave stones were removed, the area graded and a fence erected, resulting in the appearance as seen in recent years. A map was also drawn in 1900; available as one of the photos...
