I played hooky today and spent the day with the inventor of the egg carton and refrigerator shipping (the same great lady!), the creator of Thanksgiving and Mary Had a Little Lamb (the same lady!), a signer of The Declaration of Independence, the voice of the Phillies, an Arctic explorer, Titanic victims and many many more! I spent the day at Laurel Hill Cemetery in Philadelphia. A cemetery on my visit wish list! One more off the list! I got to half of it. HALF! I missed some major monuments, but there was just no time! If you enjoy Victorian art, you must visit this cemetery…it’s more art garden than graveyard. So pick a nice day…bring along a picnic basket and make the day of it!
Laurel Hill Cemetery is a great cemetery. It would be a great thing if all cemeteries could be like Laurel Hill Cemetery in Philadelphia, PA. They get the community involved by having fun events (not just tours) in the cemetery itself. Folktales, music, balls, banquets…all in the cemetery. It’s exactly what the founders wanted. A city park that is open for all. There just happens to be people buried there, that’s all!
The following info was taken from www.thelaurelhillcemetery.org If you live in the Philadelphia area and have not checked out the great events at the cemetery, you must do so!
Picnics, strolls, carriage rides and sightseeing were popular pastimes in Laurel Hill’s early days, when “nearly 30,000 persons…entered the gates between April and December, 1848.” The site continues to remain a favored retreat for tourists, joggers, bicyclists, nature lovers, sketch artists and amateur photographers.
Laurel Hill is one of the few cemeteries in the nation to be honored with the designation of National Historic Landmark, a title received in 1998. Numerous prominent people are buried at the Cemetery, including many of Philadelphia’s leading industrial magnates. Names such as Rittenhouse, Widener, Elkins and Strawbridge certainly pique local interests, but Laurel Hill also appeals to a national audience. General Meade and thirty-nine other Civil War-era generals reside here, in addition to six Titanic passengers. As in its earliest days, Laurel Hill’s natural beauty and serenity continue to render it a bucolic retreat nestled within the city’s limits overlooking the Schuylkill River. This beautiful green space is further complemented by the breathtaking art, sculpture and architecture that can be found here. These are just some of the many attributes that render Laurel Hill Cemetery a primary destination for local and national visitors to the City of Brotherly Love.

History
In late 1835, John Jay Smith, a Quaker and librarian, recorded in his diary: “The City of Philadelphia has been increasing so rapidly of late years that the living population has multiplied beyond the means of accommodation for the dead…on recently visiting Friends grave yard in Cherry Street I found it impossible to designate the resting place of a darling daughter, determined me to endeavor to procure for the citizens a suitable, neat and orderly location for a rural cemetery.”
Smith’s very personal experience ultimately had very public implications, as less than one year later, this grieving father founded Laurel Hill Cemetery with partners Nathan Dunn, Benjamin W. Richards and Frederick Brown. When Smith conceived of Laurel Hill, he envisioned something fundamentally different from the burial places that came before it, and the site has continued to hold an important place of distinction as one of the first cemeteries of its kind. Key concepts to Laurel Hill’s founding were that it had to be situated in a picturesque location well outside the city; that it had no religious affiliation; and that it provided a permanent burial space for the dead in a restful and tranquil setting.
