There is no G. R. number for this cemetery. Based on Wainer homestead evidence found on an old Westport map, and Wainer family history, we believe that this and a cemetery nearby (WSP 883) were the burial grounds for the Wainer family, including Michael Wainer who lived on this property after 1800 who were people of color - native American and African-American - who are descendants of Cuff Slocum, patriarch of the Cuffe Wainer families. Capt. Michael Wainer bought the property in 1800 from Paul Cuffe who had bought it the year before. and lived there until his death. Michael was brother in law and business partner of Capt. Paul Cuffe.
