Exploring Oak Hill Cemetery

Today's adventure north central Illinois and to the town of Utica. Located on a hillside just minutes north of beautiful Starved Rock state park is a very old pioneer cemetery dating back to the 1840's. Like many pioneer cemeteries, this cemetery contains the graves of many veterans including a section dedicated to Civil War Soldiers. So come join me as we explore Oak Hill Cemetery.

Beautiful, pristine cemetery Bryan. Somebody keeps that cemetery in great condition. Many of those headstones are made of a soft stone and can't withstand those treacherous Chicago winters. That is a shame but lovely all the same. Thanks for bringing it to us. RIP to all. 🙏♥️
