RHS members discuss Mount Greenwood Cemetery’s unique status as unincorporated Cook County land within Chicago’s 19th ward

Paula Everett, president of Mount Greenwood Cemetery Association, and a Board member of the Ridge Historical Society (RHS), and RHS Facebook Page Administrator Carol Flynn (past RHS Board member) made the news again because of the Cemetery being an island of unincorporated Cook County land in the middle of the 19th ward.

They were interviewed by journalist Mariah Woelfel for a segment for WBEZ Chicago, the National Public Radio station.
