Athens Now Shopper 11-18-22

On November 12 members of Heritage Protection of North Alabama supported the annual cleanup of the historic Mooresville Cemetery. The weather cooperated to give us a good morning, a lot of work was accomplished with 12 people in attendance. We give a special thank you to local historian John Rankin for providing comments on the history of this 180-year-old cemetery.

Other organizations that supported were the Sons of Confederate Veterans, United Daughters of the Confederacy and the Madison History Association. Residents from the town of Mooresville also contributed their time.

We will work other cemeteries over the next few months and will send announcements ahead.
