Poquetanock Cemetery is a different location entirely.

Howard is certainly correct. Thomas Miner is buried in the Wequetequock Cemetery. Who ever asked first about this I can tell you where it is located in Stonington and give you much more information about the area and cemetery but it is best to email me personally. No need to fly there to prove it. I am sure many people on this list can help you. It is an important cemetery in Stonington. This is the area where some of the first settlers had their homes. I have seen the site. He is buried under a large wolfstone with his name carved on one side and his wife's Grace Palmer's carved on the other. I have an early 1930's photo of the wolf stone taken by my greatuncle, Roy Miner, that I can scan and send to the person who wants to know about it. The carving shows up very well, better than it does now. I also have more recent colored photos but the day was rainy so they are not the brightest. Someone in Stonington has a CD-ROM for sale listing the graves at the Denison, Wequetquock, and Old Taugwonk cemeteries and this service is mentioned under Library Notes in the Bulletin of the Stonington Historical Society's, "Historical Footnotes," for Aug. 2002. If you email me I will give you his name and address. Go to www.expedia.com and click on the maps tab at the top , then on the next page, click on find a map, on the next page fill in the hole for area, North America, place Wetequequock, Connecticut, USA you will get a map of where it is. It is right off of Route One on a road to the right between Stonington and Pawcatuck, CT and the next town would be Westerly, RI right over the border.
