Many people believe that I am misspelling the name of the cemetery on my blog and in my posts on Facebook. Here are some artifacts from the archives of the cemetery which show that Aspin Hill really is the name of the cemetery. As I point out in the history of the cemetery, while the road adjacent to the cemetery and the surrounding neighborhoods are called “Aspen Hill,” the cemetery’s original owners intentionally named it “Aspin Hill.”
Here is the back and the front of a postcard found in the files of the cemetery. In this case, the reverse side is more relevant to the subject of this post. However, I can’t resist asking, “Who puts caskets on a postcard?” Answer: Mr. Nash.


This is the current sign on the cemetery:

Now when someone tells me I’ve spelled the name of the cemetery incorrectly, I’ll just send them a link to this post.
Proof is in the pudding – or on the postcard! BTW – if you search on ebay for “postcard with casket” a few show up – it appears that was a marketing strategy at one time.
