Wholesale Laurel Hill Cemetery of Saco, Maine - Hardcover

by Leslie Rounds (Author), Emory Rounds (Author) Founded in 1844, Laurel Hill Cemetery was one of the first to follow the rural cemetery movement that began with Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge, Massachusetts. These park-like arboretums provided peaceful, natural places to bury and visit the deceased. Nearly everyone who played a significant role in local history, as well as numerous less well-known people who led typical but historically revealing lives, has a grave in the cemetery. Authors Leslie and Emory Rounds chronicle the history of the cemetery and the fascinating stories of those buried there. Number of Pages: 130 Dimensions: 0.38 x 9 x 6 IN Publication Date: May 14, 2018
