Old Burying Ground

History
1
From 1811 to circa 1839, the early settlers of Perry used this site as the town’s first cemetery. It included land now occupied by the Perry Public Library and extended across Main Street. The early settlers buried here were laid to rest in the Old Burying Ground, and the Williams family memorial stone behind the library also preserves part of this history.
