On this cemetery is also a Calvary or Golgotha-mountain. (According to the Gospels, a site immediately outside Jerusalem's walls where Jesus was crucified.)
In lots of painting and statues, Mary, mother of Jesus and the aposttle John stand at the foot of the cross.
Description: Comb graves in Allred Cemetery, Overton Co., Tenn.
Date: February 26, 2013
Creator: Dr. Richard Finch
Collection name: Richard C. Finch Folk Graves Digital Photograph Collection
Historical note: Comb graves are a type of covered grave that are often called "tent graves." The length of the grave was covered by rocks or other materials that look like the gabled roof or comb of a building. They were popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It is conjectured that these graves were covered to protect them from either weather or animals, or perhaps both. While comb graves can be found in other southern states, the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee has the highest concentration of these types of graves.

In this modern place of the dead all stones are the same height and size. This section was laid out before they started to use long cement foundations to hold all the stones at a uniform height so there is a bit of variation.

Oakwood Cemtery
Montgomery, AL
This is a very large, historic cemetery in the town of Montgomery. It has the older section and a newer section just down the street called the Oakwood Annex. The cemetery began by donations of land from Andrew Dexter in 1817 and General John Scott in 1819. The early part of the graveyard was known as Scott's Free Burying ground. The cemetery was open for all of Montgomery's people. Many soldiers and prominent people are buried here. It covers about 140 acres.
