The People and History of Southern Graveyards

Journey with me through the Graveyards of the south. Learn the history of the graveyards and of the people who rest there. From local graveyards to famous graveyards to those time has long forgotten. Graveyards aren’t places of fear depicted in ghost stories and horror movies. Walking among the tombstones is one of the most peaceful ways to spend your leisure time. After all, it’s the resting place of your loved ones; those you laughed with, cried with, and helped through the snarls of life. I often speak to those I visit. There you are, Grandma, I miss you. Thank you for your service, sir. Hi, Aunt Belva, I wish I could have known you. Hi Aunt Mary and Uncle Robert. As a breeze softly ruffles my hair and caresses my face, I feel that they hear me and are pleased that I stopped by for a visit.
