The Friends of Oella Cemetery is Looking for More Volunteers
The Friends of Oella Cemetery is an informal group of volunteers that aims to organize community support for the ongoing maintenance and interpretation of this important heritage asset of our community. They welcome our Oella neighbors, family members of the interred, and others with an interest in local history. They are especially interested in gathering the stories of the people who are a part of the cemetery.
