    Hi, I’m just checking out the “New Look” on the website and wondered where this comment is going to???

    Could the ACKGS web page be included in the item about the society? It is http://www.ACKGS.org.

    The cemetery lists are most appreciated.

    Does Mt. Vernon Cemetery have an office/ contact with an e-mail? I am not sure if it is city-run.
