    This large, well-maintained, active, Roman Catholic cemetery, located along Main Street and Broadway, was consecrated in 1858. More than 46,000 persons now rest in it., many makers of Maine history among them. A Boston and Maine railroad track ran through it and almost split it in half. On the railroad’s east was the older section; on its west, the newer. Headstones and monuments varied in size, style, stone types, stone colors, and degree of ornamentation. The older section offered more by way of historical and genealogical interest, but we spent most of our time in the newer one. The narrow lanes were mostly paved and the grounds were generally flat. While we visited several relatives’ graves, the cemetery was a tranquil place of reverence and contemplation. We liked it that way.
