Driving Directions

From the town of Compton take Route 147 North a few miles. As you start to go down the hill, keep an eye out for the cemetery on the left side of the road. If coming from Lennoxville, take 143 to 147 and continue past Milby. The cemetery will be on the right side of the hill near the top.

Cemetery History

This burying ground is in the area known by old timers as Libby Hill. Today there is a busy highway and no place to park along it so one would have to drive into a farmer's yard and walk the short distance to the cemetery.

There is only one monument. All the names are inscribed on it. (The name on the sign is Libbey and the monument Libby). It is fenced and has a sign and gate but really no access road.

Cemetery Records

Records below were transcribed from the lone monument in the cemetery by Leslie Nutbrown in April 2006, with a re-visit April 2020. Addition records were taken from local church records.

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
