Boughton Family Fence Repair, Memory Hill Cemetery - 2011

The Friends, with a $6,000 matching grant from Watson-Brown Foundation Junior Board, repaired the falling and rusting Seth Boughton fence in 2010-2011. This fence dates from the 1860s. Its coping had been uprooted by large cedar trees, and the fence itself was in danger of being removed because of its state of disrepair. The repair by blacksmith George DuPree restored the fence to its original beauty.
