Dale,

I looked at the GenWeb site before posting my query, but there are no grid
coordinates for the cemetery there that I can find. Also, though it does
have the address and directions, it also shows no other names for it
(assuming it has one) or labelled location on the topo map so I can look the
information up in other sources.

Thank you for the help.

David -

A good source for cemetery information is frequently the USGenWeb site for
that town, right here on RootsWeb. Most of the Plymouth County towns have
sites, and most of those have cemeteries pages, including Kingston:

http://www.rootsweb.com/~mackings/cemeteries.html

The Old Burying Ground is at the intersection of Main and Green Streets,
next to and behind the First Congregational Parish Church - it is the old
church yard. It backs up to the newer, and larger, Evergreen Cemetery. The
Kingston cemeteries page has links to street and topo maps that will help
you to locate it. On the topo it appears to be an extension to the southeast
of Evergreen, but you will see the symbol for the church at the southern end
of it, on Main St. (Route106).
