The McDonough Union Cemetery is located on the hill in back of the Methodist Church. The first plot of land was given to the town for this by John Fiske Hill and a society was formed and incorporated in the 1960's. Since that time it has become necessary to purchase additional land on the north from the estate of Aderesta Lewis. Mrs. Lewis was on of the organizers of the Ladies Cem,. Assoc.,also the first president of same. Through the help of this association,many improvements were made such as the iron seats placed about the cemetery and the fence at the approach of the hill. To the north of the church a small plot of ground was willed by Mrs. Lewis to the association and there the vault was built.
