Take the Sea Captains’ Burial Ground Footpath and you'll come upon two burial plots. One for the Fownes family and the other for the Melvin family. These two families lived in the area even before the original settlement was established in 1783. They are credited with building 32 ships and working two large farms from 1820 to 1864.  There are more than 45 family members buried in the two cemeteries.
