Sadly, the  Maple Grove Cemetery in North Lewisburg was often referred to in the past as the much-older "Spain Cemetery."  The funeral home workers just naturally listed burials in Maple Grove or Spain Cemetery as "North Lewisburg."  The cemetery has three distinct sections:  the old, original Spain Cemetery which was started in about 1837; there have been few burials there since the 1930s - the older section of Maple Grove, with the first burial in 1892, which lies just north of Spain Cemetery (both of these are bounded on the west by Gilbert Road) - the "new addition" or "Gilbert Addition" to Maple Grove Cemetery which lies on the other side of Gilbert Road.  The first burial there was in the 1950s.
