The plot was purchased in 1922 by my g-grandmother (I'm guessing) because that's when one of her sons died and it's the oldest date on the tombstone. I had contacted the cemetery to find out if my grandmother was buried there and they directed me to the site. Now, since I ignored the letter asking for the money I really don't think I can contact them again. The cemetery is very nice and well-kept. I always thought that the maintenance was included in the cost of the plot. This was news to me.
