On my recent trip to Savannah I spent some time photographing at Laurel Grove Cemetery North. Founded in 1852, this was cemetery for white residents of Savannah, including many Confederate soldiers and veterans. Nearby was Laurel Grove Cemetery South which was the cemetery for slaves and free blacks. I didn’t have a chance to visit Laurel Grove Cemetery South on this trip, I hope to visit on my next trip to Savannah.
Here are a few of the photos I took at Laurel Grove Cemetery North
