- Ceres (dwarf planet) (Wikipedia)
Ceres (minor-planet designation: 1 Ceres) is a dwarf planet in the middle main asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It was the first known asteroid, discovered on 1 January 1801 by Giuseppe Piazzi at Palermo Astronomical Observatory in Sicily, and announced as a new planet. Ceres was later classified as an asteroid and then a dwarf planet, the only one not beyond Neptune’s orbit.

Maplewood has its own “Ghost Town.” English Street and Frost Avenue was the center of this now vanished city. In the final years of the nineteenth century it was a very different place.
