Broad Street Cemetery in an early view

Broad Street Cemetery

Weathered gravestones and a tall monument stand beneath broad trees. The transcription website dates this photograph circa 1909 but attributes it to the 1906 A Century of Meriden; those conflicting labels do not establish an exact exposure date.
