This burying ground is located across from McDonald's on Storey Ave and was established in 1720 when the town was still part of Newbury. The town of Newburyport was established in 1764. The first parish here was erected in 1711 and called Queen Anne's Chapel. The cemetery was later renamed Belleville Cemetery after the church building burnt down in 1920 and the parish relocated to St. Paul's Church. Queen Anne's Chapel featured a Paul Revere Bell, which was saved from destruction and is now on display at St. Paul's Church on High Street. See it's location and get directions at Yahoo Maps.
