History

In the 1940s the township of Franklin purchased and maintained 100 cemetery plots. The purpose was to create a Potter's Field. By 1975 the township only used 6 of the burial plots: they decided to sell the others.[1]

Burials

  • Colonel Routh Goshen
  • Welsh Family, said to have donated the land for this cemetery. The family lived on Welshs Lane in East Millstone, NJ.
