Old Upper Springfield Friends Burying Ground is a cemetery located in Springfield Township and Wrightstown, in Burlington County, New Jersey, United States. The cemetery and the accompanying meeting house were placed on both the New Jersey (state ID # 875) and the National Register of Historic Places (Reference # 79001479) in 1979.
The creation of the cemetery arose from a 1965 need when at that time the only two federal veterans' cemeteries in the state were full.
