Hey all,

This is Christine again, I am doing some research on the history of the Cemetery. I came across one of the people laid to rest here. Here is the news story from last year.

If you know someone who is laid to rest in the cemetery please share your story!

As we celebrate influential individuals throughout Black History Month in the Mohawk Valley, we pay tribute to Ellen Elizabeth Lavender, affectionately known as Mother Lavender.

Hey All,

This is Rev. Christine Williams the Rector of Grace Church Utica. I am on the board for New Forest Cemetery. I am working with the board to help grow our online presence.

As you know, New Forest Cemetery holds a significant place in the history upholding the diversity of the city of Utica.

The board has been transitioning and we are trying to maintain the grounds, preserve and share our history, and revitalize our presence in the community.

If you are able please share our page inviting your friends to share and like our page. This would help grow our community, help to facilitate the advertising of our services, and help us keep the community aware of our future growth.

There will be more to come!

Thank you so much!
