Do you know of Nooseneck Hill ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Nooseneck Hill. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Nooseneck Hill.<1>

Our sources for Nooseneck Hill (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Nooseneck Hill other than they indicate that Nooseneck Hill would be found somewhere in Kent County, Rhode Island.
