OTTERBEIN CEMETERY, SOMERSET OHIO

We picked the coldest day to visit this place. Lots of legend here about the horseshoe grave. (grave of Mary Henry) You can find out more online by typing in Mary Henry, Otterbein Cemetery or horseshoe grave.

A tree trunk tombstone symbolizes a life cut short. This guy was 24 years old.
Mary Henry's stone is now encased in metal to protect it from thieves. This is her second stone and the second time the horseshoe has appeared on it.
