Thank you, Wayne. Both the cemetery and City Museum are interests of mine. In Ireland there are coins on monuments. I serve on the cemetery Board of Trustees and work one day a week at the museum. Come see the museum, it is very interesting. Russ Hatter and John Downs are both great sources of information on Frankfort.
