Mount Hope Cemetery in Rochester, New York, founded in 1838, is the United States' first municipal rural cemetery.

The annual growth rate of this cemetery is 500-600 burials per year.About 12,000 to 14,000 years ago, Mount Hope was covered with ice one to two miles thick. As the glacier receded, cracks appeared in the ice, and these crevasses became rivers of water and gravel. When the miles-high ice sheets finally melted, these river beds were left as ridges created from all the rock and rubble that had been deposited by the flowing river. In geological terms, these ridges are called esker. One s...

1836 marked the beginning of continuous public library service in Western New York when the Young Men’s Association (YMA) was created to acquire books of permanent or lasting value for its members.

Ownership of the building, however, remained with the Library.A second library, the Grosvenor Library, had been operating in Buffalo as a n...
