One of two cemeteries in the City of Monroe, the Mound Cemetery Association was organized in 1859 under special charter of the statutes of Ohio passed February 24, 1848. At the time the photo was taken, the cemetery was located off Main Street, what is present-day Old Street. The cemetery can presently be accessed via South Main Street, and has the address of 560 South Main Street. It was originally an American Indian burial site. Many of the early settlers of Monroe are buried here, including Nathaniel Sackett, Jr., one of the original people who platted the village in 1817. The other cemetery is on North Main Street. The photographer of this image, Marion G. Warner, is also buried here.</div>
