    1. Re: [ARIZARD] Nebo Cemetery state of disrepair, for lack of a better word

    3. Thank you very much. The problem is that the stones were moved from their original resting place by people dragging the broken limbs caused by the ice storm. Now no-one is keeping the cemetery mowed. So we weren't sure if that means this old cemetery will disappear into brushland. The last burial was in 1995, I think, and that is the only one since the late 1880's to very early 1900's. I will try to get in touch with the gentleman. gen --- On Sat, 6/23/12, Mary f.
