Littleton Cemetery
Whaleyville, Worcester County, Maryland

Contributed by John Joshua Jenkins, May 01, 2003 [j.j.jenkin@lycos.com]. Total records = 39.

To reach the cemetery from Whaleyville, drive north on Dale Road, right onto Sheppards Crossing Rd, right onto Shavox Church Road. The cemeteries will be to your left, or the north side of the road is a very short distance.

This is in two sections, within short walking distance of one another. Both sections are in very poor condition, overgrown with a lot of trash. It possibly was two different cemeteries, early maps show it was. I do not know the names of either, so chose Littleton for a name. If anyone knows the names please contact me.

Both cemeteries are similar in that they are surrounded by cinder blocks. The two are approximately 20-25 yards from one another on the same side of the road, separated by a forested area.

I walked and transcribed all existing headstones on Aug 03, 2002.
