Some fun with the Impossible Project, I sat on this film for a long time before I used it. It's shot on a Polaroid One. So, the pictures are iffy.

Jewish Rest Cemetery
Dr. H.D. Jerwick (1894-1918);
Gone to the eternal lodge above,
Where God alone presides.
Living are those who sit with him,
Although we call them dead.

East Dean Church is a small church and churchyard found on the South Downs, between Eastbourne and Seaford just a short walk from the East Dean bus stop. A very pleasant place, in part thanks to it’s beautiful countryside location.

Jewish Section of Willow Dale Cemetery
This burial ground began as the Scherer Family Cemetery. The Scherers were among the early settlers of Rosehill, a rural community in northwest Harris County. The first German settlers began arriving by way of Galveston in 1846. Through the efforts of founding pastor Johann Heinrich Braschler and local residents Jacob and Henry Theis, C. W. Winkler, and George Scherer, Salem Lutheran Church was established as a congregation in 1851. By the late 1880s, in addition to the church, the area also had a post office, seven cotton gins, three general stores, a sawmill, a gristmill, a blacksmith and a wagon maker.
The first burials here were of Helena Scherer (d. 1859) and her brother, Reinhardt Johann Scherer (d. 1860). The first non-family member buried here was Eva Achenback Theis (d. 1861). In 1864, three men who died in the Spring Creek Powder Mill explosion were interred here. In 1869, George Scherer transferred property including the cemetery to Salem Lutheran Church; the cemetery changed its name at this time. Those buried here include veterans of military conflicts dating to the Civil War. Others interred include many early Rosehill residents and other individuals who attended the church but lived in nearby communities such as Cypress Top, Decker Prairie and Willow Creek. Cemetery features include vertical stones, obelisks, interior fencing, grave slabs, statuary and German-language markers. Set among trees and vegetation, Salem Lutheran Cemetery remains active while continuing to serve as a record of the area's early settlers. (2008) (Marker No. 15724)
Additional Plate: In the 1890s, two cousins were both named named William Theis. Misdirected mail resulted in William from Klein adding an "s" to the spelling of Theis.
Pioneer Cemetery, on Spring Creek Road north of Nottawa, is an inactive cemetery in St Joseph County, Michigan. The earliest death date is 1816, but people really started moving in during the 1830s. Most of the last residents were interred in the 1980s, and the most recent arrival was 2004.
When we arrived, there was an unbroken crust of ice glistening on the snow. We elected to leave it undisturbed and made our photos from the side of the road.
