To reach cemetery in West Hampton, from Lasalle Ave drive west onto Queen Street, Hwy 415. Turn north about 3 blocks before I664, and then west onto Harlequin Drive.

This cemetery was established in the early 1800s by Benjamin West, and it has under 100 graves in it at this time. It is owned and well maintained by Jessie Hogg.

It is in the middle of a housing project surrounded by a privacy fence. There is a paved access road to the site between two homes on Harlequin Drive. One should call Jessie Hogg 757-722-5704 to obtain access, as it has a gate which is locked.

I walked and read this cemetery on Mar 20, 2009. This included all existing and legible stones and markers with some added from a previous reading. I have digital pictures of all the tombstones
