Southborough Historical Society's Cemetery Project Board
As evidenced by this handwritten and transcribed bill, a coffin maker received $2.00 for making a coffin in 1801. Notice the bill was paid for by the town.

What Lies Beneath?
Southborough Historical Society's Cemetery Project Board
Post 1
Upon entering the Southborough Historical Society, I told them that I was interested in the cemetery nearby. They ushered me into their cemetery project board.
They have made a wonderful display of the gravestones they can identify. Each dot represents a grave. It lift up and there is more information underneath. I took partial shots of each section as examples. They gave me permission to post anything I wanted.

You can imagine how long it took to create this. I wish I had my Flip-Pal scanner with me. I could have taken each section and pieced them together. I still may do this...
