🇺🇸 On this day, in 1833 Michael Spencer purchased 160 acres of land from the United States government. Two years later he generously donated 1 acre to be laid out as our first cemetery. What was originally known as the Michael Spencer Burying Ground, we now refer to as our beloved Sandstone Cemetery. It was an amazing moment to watch Mr. Spencer's beautiful blue vein marble gravestone once again stand straight & level. 🪦❤
