![]() Henderson.Ī brief article reporting the mysterious death of Etna Daniel is chock-full of detail, not all of it accurate. Posted in Births Deaths Marriages, City of Wilson, Civic Life, Institutions, Land and tagged fence, ground-penetrating radar, Lane Street Project, Vick cemetery on Jby Lisa Y. A fence goes some way toward protecting the place, but we cannot lose sight of the 4,224+ people who lie here. Carlton Best so incisively noted at the open forum, Vick Cemetery is both a physical place and a grouping of ancestors. once New South has identified types of fencing appropriate for the site, the city should seek public input on the style of fence selected (read: NO CHAIN LINK).the determination of the course of fencing should take place only after a more complete assessment of the locations of graves is made and after an assessment of what, if anything, should be done about structures such as the parking lot and electricity transmission poles.and, on the east side, where an unsurveyed strip perhaps 20 feet wide runs through the driveway, across the parking lot, and all the way back to the woods.and in the back, where trees are growing in the cemetery (should they be cut down?).but also, along its western edge, where the cemetery abuts a natural gas pipeline easement.this includes the front edge of the cemetery, under the power lines and inside the city’s right-of-way and/or the utility easement.we know that areas inside each of Vick’s borders were not radar-surveyed. ![]()
