Hait Family and Nesbitt Cemteries

Up on Roses Brook where the Brook road intersects with Morse Rd. there is a cemetery which is supposed to be a "Hait" Cemetery. It is right next to the little school house. Aunt Vera Hait and I went up and explored it one summer evening while we were camping up on the pond. I wrote down all that I could find markers for. We also explored a cemetery up on Morse Road (right next to the McDowell cabin). I also have a list of those buried there that I could read. It is referred to as "The Nesbitt Cemetery". --Sylvia Ackerson, June 27, 1997
