    Description

    Title:
    Cedar Grove Cemetery (New London Cemetery Association) Booklet
    With Foldout Map
    Author: Ernest E. Rogers
    Publisher: New London Cemetery Association 1941 Volume 1 Number 3
    Description:
    Rare booklet that was published as a scholarly journal by the New London Cemetery Association. Cedar Grove Cemetery is located in New London Connecticut.
    Cedar Grove Cemetery is
    a non-profit,
    undenominational and community organization. The booklet has history, lists, war veterans and photos related to the cemetery. History of families, headstones, inscriptions plus lots more. See contents below.
    As with journals the pages don't start at page 1 unless it is the first issue. This is the third issue released so pagination starts at 162 and concludes at 234 so there are 72 pages. Unsure of how long they published this for but I have never seen another copy. There is a great foldout map attached in the rear.
