2. Dunstable Marker newly restored and relocated to the Dunstable Town Commons
Dunstable Town Hall is in the background.
I believe this marker has been moved several miles to the west from this location at the Dunstable / Tyngsborough town line to the Dunstable Town Commons. Presently there is no marker at location of this entry. I have photographed the marker which is on the Dunstable Town Commons across Main Street (Mass Route 113) from the Dunstable Town Hall also known as the "Sarah R. S. Roby Memorial”. The marker appears to be recently restored. The new geo location is - Dunstable Marker Location: 42°40'27.6"N 71°28'54.0"W Note To Editor only visible by Contributor and editor
