Lol! I suspect there are a lot of us out there, and not just on FR. Find-a-Grave.com is one of the more popular sites on the web. And I imagine if you look you could find half a dozen blogs dealing with cemeteries, tombs, catacombs, ossuaries, etc.. Some of the most requested tours in New Orleans, for example, are the tours of the “cities of the dead,” the vast burial grounds for generations of Orleanseans.
I would *love* to visit New Orleans cemeteries.
My main interest is the old statuary and wonderful tombstones of the past.
Modern ones are all so four-square, unoriginal and banal.
My dad’s stone was just put in place last month and ‘fancy’ as it is, it’s just a variation of all the ~other~ ‘guy-in-fishing-boat-with-deer-and-mountain-scenery’ stones nearby.
On the flip side of that are “cemeteries” like the ones we took my gramma to visit in WV.
We’d tromp through somebody’s pasture to pay our respects to long-gone kinfolk who only had field stones with no names on them.
Gramma always knew whose rock was whose.
She’s gone now and I couldn’t even tell you exactly where in WV they are, let alone list the occupants of each rock.
