I used to live very close to this little cemetery. It is quite overgrown and neglected and the signs have all gone, hopefully to be replaced because this cemetery is part of the old Stuart town history. Stuart was renamed Alice Springs in 1933. Anyway, the cemetery is on a little corner of George Crescent looked over by the railway line as it comes into the railway station.
On the way to Burano the vaporetto passes Cemetery Island. San Michele or Cemetery Island is an island in the Venetian Lagoon part way between Venice and Murano. In 1807 the neighbouring island of San Cristoforo della Pace was selected to become a cemetery when, under French occupation, it was decreed that burial on the mainland (or on the main Venetian islands) was unsanitary. The canal that separated the two islands was filled in during 1836, and subsequently the larger island became known as San Michele. Bodies were carried to the island on special funeral gondolas. The cemetery is still in use today.

Assimilation in action: this 1923 marker is all in English, for a guy given an Anglo name nineteen years earlier.

Veterans from all the nation's wars are buried in the cemetery, from the American Revolution through the Iraq and Afghanistan. Pre-Civil War dead were reinterred after 1900.
How peaceful is
The closing scene
Where virtue yields her breath
How sweetly beems
The smile sarene
Upon the cheak of death

Also known as Congregation Emanuel Cemetery at Fairmount Cemetery.
In our search for a waterfall on the road to Hana, we accidentally hiked through a sugar cane field-- which opened up on this rustic cemetery.
Thinking better of stomping through what could be sacred ground, I choose a 200mm lens.
Mulkey Cemetery is a small historic cemetery located in the south hills of Eugene, Oregon, United States, in the Hawkins Heights portion of the Churchill neighborhood.
The hilltop, with sweeping views of west Eugene, the Willamette Valley, the Coburg Hills, and the Cascades, was first used as a cemetery in 1853. The cemetery property was deeded to the Bailey Hill School District in 1891. Management was taken over by the Mulkey Cemetery Association in 1925. The Association still maintains the land, and became a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation in 2008.
The cemetery is located at 3335 South Lambert Street. (www.mulkeycemetery.org/)
No headstones, just this monument for the many unmarked graves nearby. More than just a cemetery, this is just about the only reminder of a huge gold rush tent city
I was delighted with the contrast of fresh snow, and the warmer colors of the cement gate pillars. This is a very old cemetery with dates preceding President Grant.

October 14, 2020 - "Located within Dublin Veterans Park on the south side of Indian Run Creek, the Indian Run Cemetery was the first burial ground to be established in Dublin, with the first burial being that of Mary Polly Sells King, who died on January 16, 1841.
The last interment was in 1877.
It was the principle burying ground in Dublin for 40 years, until the I.O.O.F. Cemetery was established in 1858. Many grave stones were moved to the I.O.O.F. Cemetery in the mid-1800s, though it's not sure the bodies were moved. The last burial was made in Indian Run in 1877.
After that time, the attention of the town shifted to the new I.O.O.F. Cemetery, and Indian Run fell into disuse and disrepair. Many of the gravestones were broken by cows and vandals, and the original stone walls deteriorated. By the 1960s, it was little more than an unknown lot, completely overgrown with weeds.
In 1975, the Dublin Historical Society took an interest in the cemetery, and started a restoration project that lasted more than five years. The area was cleared and a new stone wall was built. A layer of topsoil was removed to reveal the stones that had fallen, and after their locations were mapped, they were cleaned and removed for safe keeping while the restoration took place. The ground was re-graded, and the stones that could be repaired were re-set; a number of stones whose original locations could not be determined were set into the stone wall. The cemetery is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places."
