English: Springhill Cemetery is the largest cemetery in Vermilion County, and still active. In 1864 a new cemetery was needed in Danville, and Springhill cemetery was incorporated. Up until this time, the Old Williams Burying Ground (Old Danville Cemetery) was the main cemetery used. Mr. J.C. Short, Mr. English, mr. leSeure, Dr. Woodbury, and Mr. A.S. Williams formed an association and bought 50 acres of land for $2,000. Later as the Old Williams Burying Ground was being closed, many graves were moved to Springhill Cemetery.
