The Sunnyslope Cemetery Project

The society has succeeded in properly and completely documenting the graves of Sunnyslope Cemetery in Corona.  The beautifully bound book was displayed at Corona Family History Seminar on 6 October 2007.  A copy is available for reference in the Corona Public Library in the Heritage Room (upstairs).

In the meantime, enjoy stories of past "strolls" by clicking on the links below. These stories have been presented by the Friends of Sunnyslope, which has sponsored the Cemetery Stroll since 2008 (the Corona Historic Preservation Society sponsored the Cemetery Walk in prior years). All stories have been researched by the historians who have prepared them and written in a narrative format for performance. If you have additional information on these Corona residents, please contact Jean Hibben, who will forward the correction or addition to the appropriate historian for further communication and/or adjustment.
