In today’s YouTube video, https://youtu.be/Le2FqKBPrFU, we shall meet the Merrill family among so many others…

“The Merrill Cemetery, located across the road from the entrance to St. Michael’s College on College Parkway, in the Fort area of town, was quitclaim deeded over to the college by the town in August 2005.

According to the Degree article, Merrill ran a tavern that would later be converted to the Fanny Allen Hospital. According to Joyce, there is no evidence of a deed to the town or when the cemetery started.”-https://www.burlingtonfreepress.com/story/news/2018/06/30/history-space-cemeteries-colchester/36522643/
