Dedicated to Cemetery Preservation in the Great State of Ohio



Welcome to my blog about cemetery preservation in the Great State of Ohio! Thanks to so many wonderful people, many of whom are volunteers, Ohio's burial grounds - large and small - in cities and in obscure places, are being improved one by one.

Almost forgotten gravesites are being located; and stories of our ancestors are again being told.

My Favorite Quotations


"Show me the manner in which a nation cares for its dead, and I will measure with mathmatical exactness the tender mercies of its people, their respect for the laws of the land and their loyalty to high ideals."

By William Gladstone

"A cemetery shelters so much love, hate, desire, greed, averse, disappointment, friendship ---- all lie buried here.
All passions are stilled, all tumult ended. Peace reigns here forever.
Death is here, yet it is not here. It is the silent City of the Dead, yet it is a living, breathing thing.
Those we love cannot die as long as they live in our hearts."
