Thanks LuAnn for posting this info about Mt. Auburn Cemetery.

My husband's great-aunt Emma Lee HARDEE DEMPSEY (ca 1897-1965) is buried in this cemetery, hence my interest. Here's some info I ran across recently regarding the cemetery....

The Maryland Heritage Areas Authority is holding a public hearing to request an expansion to the Baltimore City Heritage Area. Mt. Auburn Cemetery is one of the 3 properties/areas that is listed as a part of this expansion.

The hearing will be held on this coming Thursday, Feb 8, 2007 1pm-4pm in downtown Baltimore at the Baltimore City Dept of Planning at 417 E. Fayette Street.
