Help us SAVE ST. MARY CEMETERY between Italy and Avalon from land developers

Image: Help us SAVE ST. MARY CEMETERY, an old graveyard which dates back to the 1870s and contains the remains of individuals who were vital in the transformation of this part of Ellis County. A rally of family, neighbors, friends, historians, and cemetery preservationists from across the state will take place rain or shine on Saturday, September 1, 2012 at 12:00 Noon in front of the cemetery on Hughes Cemetery Road. Please come out for this event so that we can show in solidarity that we do not endorse what has happened to the resting place of these Ellis County pioneers.
