Sheffield Cemeteries: Exploring Our Past
 Jim Miller and Charlotte Owens talk about our local burial grounds at this Zoom program on Nov. 13, 2020
Jim is the archivist at the Mark Dewey Research Center and Charlotte is the Society's treasurer and prolific photographer of gravestones for "Find A Grave". Both are steeped in the history of our town's final resting places and have worked for years on maintaining and restoring the grounds and stones in them.
