Historical Society
Orange needs a Historical Society to help preserve its history. You have a valuable historic resource in the "Old Burying Ground", which is the cemetery surrounding the First Presbyterian Church at the corner of Main Street and Scotland Road.
Right next to it is what is left of the Cemetery of the Episcopal Church that is just down Main street in West Orange. Go and look at the two side by side cemeteries. The vandalism and destruction of the West Orange cemetery should make Orange residents concerned that their historic cemetery could end up the same way.
I am from East Orange, and have been recording and mapping the "Old Burying Ground" on-line at: http://www.eohistory.info I hope I will be able to complete the records before the cemetery is no longer there to record.
A Historic Society in Orange could apply for the site to be preserved as a national historic site. Think about it, and get involved!
