The choice piece of land in the Garden Grove Cemetery remains the area known as Block A. When Lucretia Arnold donated land to the town, she reserved part of block A for her family. There was no reason to designate lots in that area because they would not be for sale. The area reserved by Mrs. Arnold is known as the Arnold Reserve. It is equivalent to nine normal sized lots.
In the beginning, land for a cemetery was given to the town by Lucretia Arnold. The north edge of that donation was a continuation of the north boundary of the town iteself. Today that boundary is easily identified by a ditch and a small shed.
The early cemetery land was divided into four areas called blocks.
