Old Village Cemetery, Annual Clean-up
May 4, 2019 — 9am—12nn
Please join the Brighton Area Historical Society and the Brighton community for a morning of “civic pride” at the Old Village Cemetery. The debris from winter including broken branches and leaves are being removed to prepare the cemetery for the upcoming Memorial Day. There are (47) soldier graves and about (550) graves of the early fathers and mothers of Brighton. Each grave deserves a respectful appearance and your help is critical.
