USGenWeb ArchivesThe NHGenWeb Project Archives were developed to provide free online data for genealogical research. These archives are dependent on volunteers, people just like you, donating their time by transcribing public domain records or other non-copyrighted primary sources. Your file contributions help build this repository for all researchers to come. The USGenWeb Project has guaranteed your information will remain free to all researchers.

Please do not send queries here, they will not be answered. We do not do private research, look-ups, answer family or county queries here at the archives. If you have a query, please— contact the county host for your area of research. There you can find a list of all the county coordinators and links to the individual county pages. Check these pages out as they all have wonderful information to help you in your research!

You can also contact Tina Vickery if you would like to add your public domain documents to the archives.

Be sure to check the USGenWeb “Time-To-Do” page for file submission guidelines.

Grafton County

Clark Hill Cemetery
Canaan, Grafton County, New Hampshire

To reach this cemetery, off Interstate 89 take exit 17.  Follow Route 4 through Enfield to Canaan.  Proceed to the Village.  Turn left onto Canaan St. Road.  Then, take a right onto Fernwood Farms Road.  Follow this road several miles and it will lead to Clark Hill Road (on the left).  Clark Hill Road is a dirt road.  The cemetery is about 1/2 mile down the road on the left side.  There is no sign for the cemetery and it's far off the road (you'll be able to see part of the white fence if you look down the driveways).

I believe this is all of the readable stones from the cemetery.  I had intended to photograph just a few and then ended up doing the whole cemetery.  If you have photos of any stones which I missed, please email them to me and I'll update this listing.

There was a separate section in the cemetery, under the trees, with a stone wall around it.  I did not climb into that area.  There was only one old faint stone standing and several others leaning against the fence in this section.

All photos taken September 28, 2002 by Michelle McKenzie (nhroots@capital.net) and family.
