    As Beautiful As It Is Peaceful - King's Highway Cemetery

    One of the many historic cemeteries on Route 1 is the beautiful King’s Highway Cemetery in Milford, Ct. Purchased in 1927 to add to the original Milford Cemetery property, which dated back to the early 1600s, this new 20 acres was purchased by Mrs. Bazena T. Downes Merriman.

    According to the Milford Cemetery Association, The pioneer submarine inventor, Father of the Modern submarine, Simon Lake is buried here. Read more about Mr. Lake’s accomplishments Here.
