Join local Boy Scout Troops, volunteer firefighters, and other community members as The Historical Society of Montgomery County holds its annual flag retirement ceremony on April 27, 2019, at 7:00 pm on the grounds of Historic Montgomery Cemetery.
With almost 6,000 known burials, Historic Montgomery Cemetery holds the remains of some of the most prominent citizens, veterans and reformers in the county and nation. From five Civil War generals to many captains of industry, it tells the story of the nation through the lives it represents.
