A 200-Year-Old Cemetery Rests Just 3 Feet from The Maine Turnpike

As drivers cross into Maine from New Hampshire on I-95 and continue north on the Maine Turnpike, they may notice and very out place thing very close to the highway just before the Kennebunk service plaza. Your eyes aren t deceiving you. There s a cemetery that sits just a mere three feet from the shoulder of the highway. How did it get there? Well, it was there long before the Maine Turnpike. According to an article from the Associated Press in 2003, The Mitchell-Hatch cemetery has been in that very spot since 1819. At the time the first person was buried there, there was no Maine Turnpike because there were no automobiles. And there still weren t when the last burial there occurred in 1883. The land the highway sits on today was likely owned by the family who built the cemetery to lay their loved ones to rest nearby.
