SOMERSET COUNTY Inc. 1834 by Roland Rhoades, Member Cambridge Historical Society Back to Cemeteries Index As you can see from the signpost, we are not talking about Massachusetts here; we are talking about "the way life should be". The population, as of the 2000 census, was 492. Town website Some of my ancestors settled in Cambridge in the 1840s, Joseph Leavitt (and wife Mary Ann Walls and her mother Sally Carter Walls Wilkins), and Calvin Morgridge (and wife Elonia Paine Mason and her mother Mercy Paine Fish Mason Dunham). Their mothers had remarried in Cambridge. I am turning this page into a complete "Everything about Cambridge" page. Send me your stuff, and/or links to other existing pages. Thanks.

Cambridge only has two cemeteries, unlike many towns which had one in nearly every back yard. See below for printouts of who is buried in these two cemeteries and many photos of the stones. Cambridge Cemetery #1 - Cambridge Memorial Garden: updated 12/2010. I have many more photos than shown here. I retyped the entire thing. Instead of having it alphabetical like the old original I got, I recorded them by row stone by stone so you can see who your ancestor's "neighbors" are and where empty spaces are, to help provide new clues for you. and Cambridge Cemetery #2 - Mt Pleasant Cemetery updated 10/2009 |
