Some students from Greenfield's McClain High School spent part of the day helping out at the town's historic Old Burying Ground cemetery where ongoing preservation efforts have been conducted for the past year. They joined some of the volunteers of the Greenfield Historical Society -- and clicking on the title here links to the photographs posted by them.
Below are a couple of photographs taken today shared by Scott Andersen:

A photo taken after the same gravestone for Martha A. Crothers (2nd wife of Rev. Samuel W. Crothers) was raised up. It is now ready for repair and proper re-installation at the gravesite.

& Perhaps two future gravestone conservators?
