From its establishment in 1825 to the 1840s, Quincy's only public cemeteries were a burial ground on Maine Street and a small plot in Jefferson Park. The city began to run out of space to bury its dead as it grew, and John Wood, then mayor of Quincy and eventual governor of Illinois, began plans for a larger cemetery in 1846. [ 2 ]
Illinois also has two counties named after the same person, New York governor DeWitt Clinton (DeWitt County, and Clinton County). Information on the FIPS county code , county seat , year of establishment, origin, etymology , population, area and map of each county is included in the table below.
The cemetery area measures about 50 feet (15 m) square. [2] Eighty three burials were found at the site, most in an extended position and oriented on a north to south axis with their heads to the south, although a few were oriented east to west. Five of the burials were flexed, one was semi-flexed and one was a bundle burial.
