It is a great time to get out for a walk in Orleans County, especially at one of the local historic cemeteries. It’s hard to top the fall foliage at Mount Albion Cemetery. This photo shows the arch at the main entrance of the cemetery on Route 31.
The cemetery is well cared for by the Village of Albion and local veterans’ groups make sure veterans’ graves are marked with a flag.
The Ingersoll monument stands out amidst the colorful leaves at the cemetery.
