Aspin Hill Memorial Park

[1] Aspin Hill Memorial Park is a designated individual site on Montgomery County, Maryland's Master Plan for Preservation.

Richard and Bertha Birney purchased property in July 1920, so they could breed Boston terriers, board other people's dogs, and establish a pet cemetery.

He was briefly owned by Franklin D. Roosevelt, who gave him to a married couple, Arthur and Gabrielle Forbush, who worked for his administration.

Napoleon rose to fame because he correctly predicted the end of a troublesome drought in the region during the summer of 1930.

From that point, until his death, Mrs. deShields fielded telephone calls from local farmers and people planning outdoor events wanting to know in what position Napoleon was sleeping.

[10] Montgomery County Humane Society has filed an application to develop the Aspin Hill property as their new headquarters.

The construction would occur on the two-plus acres of the cemetery property where the previous owners used to live and run their kennel, and where there have never been any burials.
