is the photo of Hemenger, this is the worst kept cemetery in Chautauqua Co, I nearly bawled when I went to take photos; I could not get one single stone in 2003 or 4 ; most are broken nubs and the rest were so flaked or eroded they were just unreadable even with a good camera, every time I go past, it looks even worse;
for some reason the town of Gerry did/does not think this an important enough burial ground to maintain; even the cemetery sign is sadly neglected;it was established in 1828
Sorry
Dee
