More information - It was the site of a cemetery. The town green was built there but the bodies weren’t moved. However, the tombstones were removed... sigh, how caring and respectful - NOT! - of the town council and wonder if the tombstones were at least given back to the families (if they could be located) or dumped. The tree was planted in 1906 in honor of Lincoln. The woman was probably a victim of yellow fever. One idiot said, “this is really cool, the day before Halloween” which is probably not the feelings of the woman’s loved ones when she was burried. All in the name of progress, don’cha know.

WOW. That sounds like the plot from the Poltergeist movie.
Would serve the people right if they did get a good haunting.
