Point of Graves —
Having visited Portsmouth since I first started driving,
it surprises me that I overlooked this place the entire
time, until
recently that is. I knew it existed, but never ventured
in to explore. What a surprise I got this past week when
I finally decided to take a closer look. As you can see
by the various photographs posted here, this graveyard
has some interesting engravings. Dating back to the 1600s,
this is perhaps one of the oldest graveyards in New Hampshire.
Of course, I don't know that for certain, but it is certainly
the oldest I have visited. For more information on Point
