Division 1 is on your left driving south on Church street before getting to the gates. In the above photo Division 1 spans
from the trees at the top to the road on the bottom. There are no interments in this section. In fact, it did not become part
of the cemetery until the mid 1960's as part of the Greenwood Urban Renewal Project. From 1881 until the mid 1960's
there had been a florists and greenhouse on this site.
