These are scenes from Mount Calvary Cemetery, high up on a hill overlooking the Illinois River and the quiet town of Seneca, LaSalle County, Illinois. I don't know all its history, but just by walking, this cemetery appears to be home to mostly Irish families, who likely worked on the
I & M Canal or in area mines.
These photos don't do the view justice. I will go back again to visit...perhaps with a walking stick!
