Current State of the Cemetery & Tombstones
Following the removal of the tombstones, they were stored in an outdoor facility, uncovered and exposed to the elements until individuals from Friends from Shannon Cemetery committee interceded and village officials moved them indoors in June 2015 where they are currently being stored, in piles, on wooden pallets.
The pictures in the galleries below provide a visual overview of Shannon Cemetery, before and after the removal of the tombstones. They also illustrate the work members of Friends of Shannon Cemetery has completed in an effort to have the tombstones restored and preserved.
