CEMETERIES


During the course of our story we have mentioned several of our cemeteries but others were omitted. Because these might be sought out occasionally by those whose ancestors rest in them we should complete the record. The main cemetery in the center of town has been adequately covered. The "Rich" cemetery on the west side of the Winchester road, about twenty rods south of the Flower Hill road, was described in the story of Spirit Spring. The "Smallpox" cemetery on the east side of the road at the top of Hastings Heights, in the east side of the town, was mentioned when writing about 1856.


There are two other cemeteries that contain in the neighbor- hood of fifty graves each, both so inaccessible that they are rarely visited today. The first is known as the "Atwood" cemetery and it lies in the extreme northwest corner of Warwick. The second, called the "Kelton" cemetery, also lies deep in the forest about one quarter of a mile from the Royalston line and slightly north of the New England Power Company high tension lines.


A number of other small family cemeteries are scattered about the town but we cannot attempt their description.

BIBLIOGRAPHY


A complete bibliography giving all the sources providing refer- ence and historical material would be too lengthy to list in detail. A general summary follows.


The all-important minutes of the meetings of the Proprietors of Gardner's Canada and the seven volumes covering the town meetings were carefully examined and copious notes made of all important or interesting actions. In addition all other town records were studied, including the annual reports of town officers from 1875 to date: Assessors' Valuation Records, Records of Select- men's Appointments and Meetings, Records of Roads Laid Out, School District Records, School Committee Reports and Records, Vital Statistics Records, Minutes of Library Trustees' Meetings. In addition several boxes and a large chest containing countless manuscripts considered worthy of preservation from 1763 to date was inventoried; it revealed many interesting historical facts.


A similar inventory was made at the Warwick Public Library where most of the records pertaining to the social, religious and community life of the town have been deposited. Here are to be found William Cobb's diaries, several scrapbooks and albums con- taining newspaper clippings, photographs and old pictures, all of great historical value. The records of the following societies and organizations are to be found: Warwick Branch of the Massachu- setts Peace Society, Society for the Promotion of Peace and Useful Knowledge, Warwick Lyceum, Warwick Social Library, Union Temperance Society, Warwick Veterans' Association (Civil War) , Militia Company Records - 1808-1831, Baptist Society Manu- scripts, Universalist Society Manuscripts.


Numerous manuscripts of addresses or orations given by various persons on the occasion of many town events, covering reminis- cences of the speaker, were found and used.
