Please be very respectful of the cemetery, as this is a very
old, historic location. Be careful where you tred. The center of
the cemetery appears to be unused, and you can use this area to
walk to the cache, which is located in the rear and to the side of
the cemetery, near the fenceline. The cache container is small,
covered with cammo tape and holds only a log book.
This cemetery is located on about an acre of land that was donated
by Hiram Fellows in 1860. Four of Hiram’s sons are buried
here: Orlando, Joseph, Eli and Daniel. The cemetery is partially
fenced, is still in use and currently holds about 195 graves. The
cemetery is still owned by Hiram’s heirs.
The Lower Highland Church was built across the road from the
cemetery in 1878 or 1879 but it was removed in 1955.
