Sandy Hook Cemetery

Newtown, Connecticut

Return to the main page.

Sandy Hook Cemetery is located on Riverside Road in the Sandy Hook area of Newtown, Connecticut. It lists its dates on the sign as 1813 - 1942. It is a small, fenced-in burial ground on the side of a somewhat main road; there is no visible gate or opening to enter the cemetery. I snapped some photos from around the perimeter.

Estimated number of interments, as of January 2024: at least 358.

Photos were taken 11 August 2019.
