Colonial New England Cemetery · World War II Veterans · Burlington History
Burlington, incorporated in 1806 from lands previously held by Bristol, built its cemetery infrastructure across multiple small burial grounds scattered through the wooded terrain of western Hartford County. Lampson Corner Cemetery is one of these older interment sites, predating Burlington's incorporation.
The cemetery's specific founding date and earliest burials have not been independently documented in sources found during research. The Shadowlands report references an early connection to smallpox mortality — a common feature of colonial New England cemeteries — but explicitly notes this was 'incorrect info passed on,' suggesting a prior correction to the original submission.
The presence of WWII-era graves is consistent with a cemetery that served the Burlington community through the mid-20th century. Burlington's cemetery network is most extensively documented in relation to the Seventh Day Baptist Cemetery on Upson Road, home to the 'Green Lady' legend surrounding Elizabeth, said to have drowned in a swamp.
Sources
The orb reports at Lampson Corner follow the pattern common to this region of Connecticut: low-hovering lights observed by visitors who were also hiking nearby trails, seen from the road or along the cemetery's edge. No formal investigation results or photographic evidence was cited in the sources found.
The WWII veteran account is the most specific entry in the local record. A hiker, believing the uniformed figure to be another person visiting the cemetery, called out to ask the time. The figure disappeared on the spot. When the hiker crossed to where the figure had been standing, he found a gravestone marking a World War II veteran.
Lampson Corner also appears in accounts of Burlington's 'Green Lady' — the spirit of Elizabeth, said to have drowned in a swamp near the Seventh Day Baptist Cemetery on Upson Road. Some sources describe the Green Lady's presence as extending to Lampson Corner Cemetery as well, treating the two sites as linked points in a single territory. Whether this cross-pollination reflects genuine multiple-site phenomena or simply narrative expansion is unclear.
Notable Entities
