ELMWOOD AVENUE

Below 1980

Originally Elmwood Avenue was shaded by rows of elms set by Mr Cleveland who was the organizer of this cemetery in 1867.
James A Cleveland's monument was set at the center of the cemetery. He had his relatives which were buried in New England brought
here to be reburied. Some as far back as 1722 are now in Elmwood. It s noted for its beauty: flowing hills, a brook, trees, a small wooden
bridge and is one of the most beautifully designed cemeteries in the area.
