The Lemon Cemetery location has been the subject of more questions than answers since the 1980s.
Today, we have amazing news to share:
The original burial site of Sarah Ellen Lemons and her husband Kenyon Mortimer Lemons has been documented. Sarah’s headstone has been located and repaired.
In a true victory for those who love cemeteries, we’re able to reunite the family with this treasured burial site!
Join us as we celebrate cemetery preservation in action and a family’s journey to find this key to their family history!
Notes:
