Members of the Betsy Baldwin Chapter, NSDAR, met at the Myrtle Grove Cemetery in Lysander on Oct. 11 as part of the Day of Service Celebration. Members Suzanne Conley of Liverpool, Regent Judi Dreher-Wiberg, Mary Hennessey and Valeri Cole and her son and daughter, all of Baldwinsville, participated. Several graves dating back to the 1870s were hidden by overgrown grass and weeds. The graves were cleared of the overgrowth, making them visible again. In September, the Chapter worked with Paul Schmid of Boy Scout Troop 119 to honor veterans in the same cemetery.
