Elm Grove Historical Cemetery NK026, on Highway 1, also
known as the Post Road, called Tower Hill Rd. in this area, between Belleville and
Allenton, RI, south of Providence and Warwick. The Chadsey plot is #25 near
the front of the cemetery behind and to the right of the house at the main
entrance. There is a large Allen gravestone nearby. William Chadsey Sr. and
Susannah Greene were originally buried on their farm and later moved to this cemetery. There is a large pillar with 4 sides. One side is for
Wm. Sr., two other sides are for his son Jabez Sr. and Jabez Sr.'s son Jabez
Jr. who died in the same year and the other side is for Jabez Jr.'s wife, Hannah
Greene. Nearby are graves of an aunt and a daughter.
