Maine, United States. Located at the corner of
Lower Main Street (U.S. Route 1) and Desert Road, it contains seventeen headstones, the earliest dating to 1831. The small plot contains pine trees both in and around its low
dry stone wall.
The cemetery was part of the Randall family farm, run by Isaac (1770–1850) and Mercy Randall (1776–1840), a site now occupied by a
Shaw's grocery store.
The farm house and buildings were on the Shaw's side of the street, then a dirt track, while a barn stood on the opposite side of today's Lower Main Street. All the buildings were demolished when construction on the ramps to and from
Interstate 295 began.
