Hallie, what was the name of the cemetery that was in Ventura that is now a
park? It still has one grave in it "Mary High" My brother said when they
change it from Cemetery to park that they carried all the tombstones up into
a canyon and dumped them. He told me which canyon .
I'm wondering if they moved the bodies? In the 70's kids would go to Mary
High to get high on Marijuana. I lived in Oxnard/PortHueneme from 1942 to
1985. Ivy Lawn was always named that.
