Route 8 ,Town of Bridgewater
This cemetery is located on Route 8 just south
of Route 20 in the village of Bridgewater. The
Universalist Church was once located on this
site.
The inactive cemetery is very well maintained
but many of the stones have been tipped over and
are broken. The tombstones in this
cemetery were transcribed by Kathleen Last and Virginia
Ackerman on August 2, 2004.
