Erie Street Cemetery

Erie Street Cemetery was acquired in September 1825, by Leonard Case, Trustee and on the 29th day of March, 1826, Leonard and his wife, Elizabeth Case, conveyed the land by quit-claim to the village of Cleveland. This cemetery is right in front of Jacobs Field home of baseball Cleveland Indians.
On tombstone will tell you the story who was buried on it. And I think one of the beautiful under tree grave in this place. Unfortunately, as with most of urban cemeteries many of Erie Street's graves have succumbed to vandalism and elements.
