Location. In a field, near the northwest shore of Baker Island.

Directions. From the cobble beach on the north shore of the island, follow the trail leading toward the interior of the island. At a concrete post, turn right and follow this trail to the cemetery.

History. All persons whose graves are marked by stones are descendants of William GILLEY and Hannah LURVEY, who moved to the island in the early 1800s from what is now Southwest Harbor.

Notes. No fence encloses this cemetery, and the grass is rarely mowed. Some stones are leaning or laying on the ground. The stone of Elisha B. Gilley is broken into several pieces and lays on the middle of another grave.

Date of most recent visit. 1999
