Location:
On Cemetery Road just outside of Brownsville,
Vermont, a very photogenic location for this cemetery. Condition is Excellent,
as the grounds are kept in superb condition. My compliments to Ann and
her husband Robert for their devoted effort. The grass is mowed to where
it looks as if I stepped into the past to visit. The Cemetery Stone data
is in excellent condition as well; someone needs to be commended for this
work.
Adopt a Stone policy is the way this Sheddsville
Cemetery has gone!
It is for families or other individuals, who
live near these Cemeteries to take the time to visit their roots. In doing
so, these neighbors who have families buried at those locations can gather
together and work as a team. Gathering the information off those Older
Cemeteries Stones for the purpose of documentation to either Internet and/or
both sending this information to State, Village, Country, and Township.
As these older stones have reached their limit
in holding the information on the stone against weathering, they should
not be neglected any longer. I have seen the effort that has been applied
to the cemeteries in New York State and on the Internet in this endeavor,
the results have been overwhelming!
