Additional Info:

Wellington Cemetery:

Located on Consecon Street, Wellington, this cemetery consists of two sections. The older section is on the east side of the road and the newer portion is on the west side. Only the latter portion is still in operation. A Quaker Meeting House built between 1800 and 1821 once stood on the grounds of the older section; this building was taken down when a new brick Meeting House was erected in Wellington in the early 1800s. Trustees of the West Lake Monthly Meeting of Friends sold the land to the Wellington Cemetery Company in Part 39b Wellington Cemetery: 1921. The cemetery was opened in 1825. Daniel Reynolds (1750-1826), the first white settler in this district is remembered on a special marker in the cemetery.
