ALBION – Albion eight grade social studies enrichment class students enjoyed a full morning Friday with Village of Albion Historian Sue Starkweather-Miller at Mt. Albion Cemetery. They learned about many notable personalities and intriguing local history stories as they walked the beautiful grounds with its dazzling fall colors on full display.
They heard tales of politicians, soldiers, artists, judges, children, and merchants – along with personal catastrophes and triumphs.
The day started with a visit inside the chapel and ended with a climb up the historic Soldiers and Sailors Monument, a Civil War Memorial.
