RURAL GROVE (WILCOX) CEMETERY UPDATE
!

NYHCPS has completed approximately one third of Rural Grove Cemetery cleanup. The cemetery is approximately 5 acres; however, the actual used space is close to 2.5 acres.  We will begin again in the spring. 

Cleanup included raking leaves, dead tree removal, brush removal and flagging of headstones. 

We would like to thank all of our volunteers who gave us their Saturdays or Sundays to help us out. Without them, this project would not have been as successful in such a short time. 

The following article was placed in The Times in October.
