History:The concept for this cemetery was created by Carl F Graefe, who spent several years in planning before construction began in 1926. An ecologist, Mr Graefe was focused on the preservation of natural resources for the enjoyment of all. The cemetery is named for the native chestnut trees that formerly grew on the seven hills of the former Babb Farm. The beauty of this cemetery draws visits from naturalists, artists, horticulturalists, and photographers as well as those who come to visit the final resting places of friends and family.
