Union Cemetery

We finally had a chance to visit the Union Cemetery downtown today! They have really awkward hours and are only open selectively during daylight. You can find a map of important tombstones and historical figures buried there by searching Union Cemetery Historical Society online. While walking through the cemetery, there are wooden «stakes» by tombstones that are important. Some of them of numbers, and some letters, so I am not quite sure what the difference is, but when I find out I wil repost. The grounds are very well kept, especially for there being such old graves there. Also, Alexander James, who helped start the Pony Express is buried here.
It’s a lovely cemetery to take a nice walk in or have a picnic, since there are picnic tables, benches, and garbage cans placed strategically around the grounds. I definitely recommend visiting this cemetery!
