Abandoned Cemetery
Middletown, New Castle County, Delaware, USA
Found on a map of Delaware from 1881 ("Map of New Castle County, Delaware : from actual surveys & records", published by G.M. Hopkins & Co.; viewable online at the Library of Congress). I have no further concrete information beyond "Cem." with a box drawn around it in this approximate location. The land now belongs to St. Andrew's School.
Based on where the area known as "The Levels" used to exist, it's possible this is actually the unlocated "Levels Cemetery" listed on Find a Grave in Townsend, Delaware. While this cemetery's location wasn't inside of The Levels according to the boundaries I've found, it was only about 1750 feet away from the eastern boundary; "The Levels was bounded on the north by Route 301, on the east by the line of the Penn Central Railroad, on the south by the headwaters of Wiggins Mill Pond, and on the west by the state line." Hopefully somebody will be able to visit the heavily wooded cemetery and maybe find some headstones which can prove or disprove my theory.
