JAMES MADISON QUOTE - 1822

"A popular government without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives."

Cedar Hill Cemetery, Improvements, Photo Tour--Part 1, Western Boundary.

The wooded area to the west of the cemetery has been cleared. I spoke with Mr. Benny Bell today at the cemetery, he stated the area will be landscaped with grass and trees planted to create a buffer area. Mr. Bell stated no grave sites were disturbed.








It would have been nice if the Mayors Office or the City Council would have announced what was going on within the Cedar Hill Cemetery. I was rather shocked when I went to visit loved ones grave sites in the western portion of the cemetery.

Previous City Council meetings discussed the work which was to occur concerning removal of the Pine Trees in the old portion of the cemetery.

I will be doing another photo tour for the old portion of the cemetery. There are some very unusual grave markers within the cemetery. It is also interesting to note grave markers reflecting Revolutionary War Soldiers and other wars since.
