Fox Cemetery (Albion)

Location: Exact location unknown. The stones from this cemetery (and possibly the graves) have been moved to Kezar Falls Cemetery. No sign of it exists now, though it is shown on the maps as being just to the east of the house on the corner of Spec Pond Road, approximately at 43.84124 -70.91664.

Historical Information: In 1853 Thomas Moulton quit claimed four square rods of land to Albion P. Fox “enclosing the burying place on the farm where he now lives” (Book 44, Page 35). This cemetery is shown on the 1858 and 1875 maps. Some time after that the headstones (and maybe the graves) were moved to Kezar Falls Cemetery. (The gravestones are placed closer together than usual at Riverside, hinting that they were never full graves.) Albion’s 2nd wife Lydia died in 1893. Maybe she had her family moved before she died or later occupants had them all moved after. In the 1990s a septic system was put in near where the cemetery had been.
