Cemeteries

Olena Cemetery

This cemetery is an old cemetery, but not so far off the beaten path as some others. When I originally took pictures in this cemetery, I was not working on this web site, so not all stones are represented and PLEASE do not rely on my information. As I get time, I will get back down and finish up taking pictures and will try to get more complete information on the pictures that I am currently posting.
