An old story goes, that it was such a bad winter, the ground was frozen so hard that they couldn't dig graves. So they put all 5 of the Munsey children's bodies in the smoke house until they could be bury them. Some years later the Munsey family deeded the land for a school and cemetery, which is where Munsey Cemetery is located today. |
