Squantuck Cemetery is located on Route 34 in Seymour, Connecticut, just over the Oxford line. It is a small, well-kept cemetery with about 40 or so burials dating from the 1800s. When I visited, it was festively decorated for the up-coming Memorial Day holiday.
Estimated number of interments, as of January 2024: at least 41.
