Index of Names
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. NATHAN SON OF Mr JOSEPH AND ELISABETH WHITMORE DIED NOV 5 1759 AGED 23 YEARS The inscription has completely vanished from the stone to the right. All that is left is "M???? ry" and an "E" at the end of the second row. Luckily there is a heel stone that shows the name Mary Whitmore.
