Manchester Township Cemetery
Manchester/ Lakehurst Cemetery

This cemetery is located on Route 37, just east of the Lakehurst border in Manchester township....I have no idea what the name of it is, as there is no sign or marking of any kind. The cemetery itself is up on a hill overlooking the highway; it is not in good shape. In fact the north end of the cemetery looks like it was washed out at some point, as many headstones are missing and have been replaced with temporary markers, and the ground is fresh dirt with newly planted grass in parts. Their are also a handful of stones that are completely and utterly unreadable, so their may be five or six people buried here that I did not record.

UPDATE: According to Sean from Beachwood, this cemetery was identified on an old County map as the Bone Hill Cemetery. Whether the town took its name from this cemetery on the hill or not is uncertain. However, I recently received an e-mail from a fellow who used to bury people here in the 70s, and he told me that the legal documents and permits always referred to it as the "Roadside Cemetery" at that time.
