This is a small family cemetery located on the corner of Cosby Road and River Street in Utica, behind Riverside Mall. The entrance to the cemetery is on Cosby Road. It appears that small trees and brush were trimmed out around the stones a few years ago, but other than that the area is not maintained. There are at least 6 stones here, all on the ground and all broken. Information found indicates this was the burial grounds for the Weaver family that lived in this area in the 1800’s.
