ALBION – The proposed tour of the Orleans County Alms “Poor” House Cemetery today has generated a great deal of interest. Due to space and location constraints, the following parking arrangements are recommended:
“Vehicles displaying handicapped stickers may be parked adjacent to the cemetery,” said Tim Archer, who will be conducting the tour. “All other vehicles should be parked by the Civil Defense building. The cemetery is a short walk away – three tenths of a mile approximately. I would advise people to arrive early and to bring lawn chairs.”
A van will be available, courtesy of Weed Man, to convey some walkers to the cemetery, which is located at 14064 County House Road in Albion.
The tour, which is organized by the Orleans County Historical Association, will begin at 6 p.m.
