Nearby: Follow Willis St. out of Bristol, CT, past Long Swamp
Rd., into Wolcott just before high tension wires will be the cemetery
on the right. the road will end. It is dirt by then and
private property. May be owned by the Beecher family, Pikel
family, or state. It is woods. If you follow a path just
before cemetery out to Woodtick Rd. in Wolcott you will find scattered
throughout the woods occasional markers dating back to the 1700's that
I believe are soldiers. Most of the cemetery itself has
disappeared with the stones vandalized, knocked over, broken, and
grown over. Beecher Rd picks up again past the power lines and
comes out on Woodtick Rd.
