20. HISTORICAL AND ARCHITECTURAL IMPORTANCE:
This cemetery is well maintained. It is a visual amenity which
contributes to the ambience of this historic Kings Hwy.
Because the Tuthills, who lived in the house to the west (OR-45),
allowed the Terry family to use their horse cart path that led to
Long Island Sound from Main Rd. , the Terrys allowed the Tuthills
to bury their relatives in the Terry Cemetery.
