Flashback Friday – Happy Memorial Day: Turn of the 20th Century View of Hillside Cemetery

Posted on: May 23, 2024

It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society.

Memorial Day is on Monday, a day to honor those who gave their lives in war. Cemeteries have always played a large role in Memorial Day celebrations. This is a turn-of-the-20th-century view of Hillside Cemetery, one of the glass plates in the Scholl Collection.

Happy Memorial Day on Monday!
