Oak Grove Cemetery came alive Sunday as local residents of yesteryear were recalled and remembered during the 10th-annual Wood County Living History Day.
The event was presented by the Wood County Historical Society.
"I'm interested in cemeteries and family history," said Paula Miklovic, Maumee, who attended the event with two friends from Perrysburg.
The first honoree was Francisco Chavez Hernandez, who was born in 1905 and was buried in 1968 in the Jerry City Cemetery. He was portrayed by his grandson, Carlos Calderon.
