Samuel's plot is in the center with the American and Rhode Island flags. The wooden fencing separate it from neighboring houses. The cemetery is between 422 and 420 Samuel Gorton Avenue. It is set back about 50 feet. Unfortunately, there are no signs on the street to indicate its presence.

This is the sign for the burial grounds. You really need to look for both the cemetery and the sign. THe sign is partially hidden by tree branches and the cemetery itself is behind houses. There is definitely a feel that you are in someone's yard.
