Grave House
Rebuilding Project |
|
|
|
|
We are in the process of
rebuilding the "Grave House" that has fallen over the grave of
Catharine E. Graves (Jun 10, 1891 - Apr 28, 1902), which is located
at the Katy Moyers Cemetery in Sharps Chapel. We were most fortunate
to locate an old barn that was itself falling down, and the owner of
the property has graciously allowed us to finish the job and use as
much wood as we want from the ruins for this project. As you can see
below, we have our two "Top Notch Demolition Men" hard on the job as
they make fast work of taking the old barn down. Stay tuned for more
pictures to come as we work hard to preserve our Union County
Cemeteries! |
