St. Anthony Cemetery, Milan

Crucifixion monument--the cross is the work of French native John Baptiste Verment, sculptor and architect from Massillon, Ohio. Not sure if the statues of Mary and St. John were added later.

Inscriptions on each side of the monument. Verment's name is under the "1884."

More of his work HERE.

Tomb of Fr. Leonard Lentsch, to the left of the Crucifixion monument. From a quick Google search, it appears he was a Redemptorist priest and worked in Pennsylvania parishes as well.

Gravestone of Catherine Cozzie.

Mausoleum of Roberts, Taylor, Fries family.

St. Anthony, Milan Ohio

Sometime in the late 1800's. The building to the left of the church was the school. The building to the right (i believe) is the old Milan school. I may be wrong, however. Both school buildings are no longer there. The tower is gone from the church, and there is a hall where the church's school used to be. The corn field you see is now a baseball diamond. The big brick school building was replaced by a new school. It's now Edison elementary. It's amazing how things change
