Holy Sepulcher Cemetery

Glenwood Cemetery is one of the most beautiful and  prestigious cemeteries in Houston with so many interesting people buried there. We have added some new Houstonians to the Glenwood page. Scroll down and look for NEW, starting with Annette Finnigin, one of the leading women’s voting rights activists and ending with Hiram Runnels, a politician and plantation owner. We’ll keep working on Glenwood in days to come.

Then, for all you wine fans, check out this California cemetery where you can rest forever among the grapevines.

Greetings — we visited a small family cemetery in Houston that’s actually located in a residential neighborhood, only accessible if you know one of the home owners — Vollmer Neimann Cemetery contains only a handful of graves.

Then we’ve posted a new Sidebar about some very Ancient Tombs in Turkey.

Enjoy

Lusitania Memorial

Greetings — we’ve visited Cobh, Ireland on the southeast coast near Cork several times. It’s a lovely town with important maritime history as you’ll learn. Today’s post is about the sinking of the British luxury liner, the Lusitania, in the early years of World War I.

Enjoy.
