A number of years ago the Presbyterians in Ashland, Ohio had their own cemetery on the west side of town along Sandusky Street. As the area built up, developers found value in the property and had the bodies exhumed. The remains were then reburied in the Ashland Cemetery. A housing development was then built on the land of the old Presbyterian Cemetery.
Is anything sacred in Ashland? People tear down historic buildings and even desecrate cemeteries!
Although I have not researched this myself, this story came from a long time Ashland resident.
Save old Ashland! There is less to save every day!
