Forgotten Cemeteries

Please forgive our recent absence. Duty called and we answered. We have been swamped with maintenance projects and repairs, the behind-the-scenes activity that isn't typically seen when you visit the museum and grounds, but that is necessary when you are caring for vintage buildings and artifacts.

We find ourselves this hot summer thinking about some forgotten and/or vandalized area cemeteries that have come to our attention. We are launching into a project with some concerned citizens, Historical Society members and volunteers to investigate their status and, hopefully, begin repairs and make a plan for on-going maintenance. The task will take a lot of organization and dedication. We'll be looking for volunteers. Stand by for future announcements.
