Spring Grove Cemetery was accepted into the National Park Service National Underground Railroad Network to Freedom in 2022.

On May 10, 2024, Friends of the Cemetery will be commemorating the efforts of H.G. and Elizabeth Blake and Lt. Col. Herman and Sarah Ann Martha Canfield in assisting freedom seekers along the Underground Railroad in the mid-1800s.

Please join us as we honor the Blakes and Canfields by sharing their stories, unveiling new signage, and welcoming their families and others in the Medina community.

This event is free and open to the public. It will take place in Section 5 of Spring Grove Cemetery.
