My dad "Hap" Heins & brother "Biff" Heins are buried in this beautiful Cemetery 😍 ❤️ 🙏 🌈
My family & a few friends are buried here & it’s really a terrific place. It’s well maintained & landscaped perfectly. The caretaker does a marvelous job of preserving the history here.
Although cemeteries are considered morbid or a place of sadness to some, the Cedar Hill Cemetery is a beautiful place & more like a memorial garden. It’s very calming & serene there, truly ideal conditions for the living to pay respect to their deceased 🙏🏻
This is an amazing (surprisingly large) cemetery tucked away in the corner of East Millstone. The cemetery spans many centuries with the oldest buried here born in the late 1700s and the most recent burials are from the 2000s. While the sign claims the cemetery was started in 1859 I believe there are older graves here. Only 1 red sandstone gravestone is present and those tend to date from the 1700s to early 1800s. The line of horse posts on the road definitely sets you in the right time frame.
A beautiful, historic cemetery, in which many of the founders of the area are interred. This peaceful cemetery is at the end of a small side street, and the explorer will find a pleasant place to reflect on the past while spending undisturbed moments in the present. The old section of Cedar Hill Cemetery is remarkable for the variety of headstones, and for the many expressions of admiration for individuals, faith in the face of loss, and reflection on the human condition found on grave markers. For a seemingly small and obscure place Cedar Hill Cemetery is host to some modern day activities, as I have met several people indulging in the sport of geocaching, while photographers can be found recording the serenity of the grounds during the changes of seasons. I understand that the local historic society conducts tours of the cemetery. If someone knows about this, please post in the reviews: I cannot think of how much could be learned and appreciated.
