Hunt Cemetery, Tunbridge, VT, USA

Paul Hunt - Visited on 12th October, 2003, this cemetery is located on Vermont 110 about 2.2 miles (3.5 km) North of North Tunbridge, Vermont, USA. Look for the access road to the Vermont Transportation District 4 Garage. Park there. There is a rusted iron fence on the southern boundary of the cemetery, which is marked by an engraved wooden sign with black lettering "Hunt Cemetery".

The first section of the cemetery you come to appears to be the newer section and contains no apparent Hunt graves.

Paralleling the road, climb a rise to the older and larger section. This section contains many old stones, dating back to at least 1835. Not all stones are legible.

The following stones are located about half way back in the old section, some 6-10 stones in from the southern extent of the old area.
