Webster Place Cemetery
Franklin, New Hampshire

Some of these grave stones were hard to read. I have put question marks on those. Many of the unreadable stones could probably be read if you know how to clean them. They are not in alphabetical order. To find a name you are looking for, you could use the 'Find In Page' which is on the menu bar of your browser, or you could use the search engine on the Homepage. They are listed according to rows; starting with the back row and working left to right, then up to the next row and going left to right.
This is a partial (though almost complete) list. 
To get to this cemetery: From the junction of Rt. 3 and Central Street, go south on Rt. 3 about 3 miles to Holy Cross Rd.(Across the highway from Webster Farm.) Turn east on Holy Cross Rd. The cemetery is at the end of the road.
