About this Event

Join Archivists Meaghan O'Riordan and Sabrina Garity for a discussion on the history of God's Acre, burial practices across the centuries, and our Memoir and Graveyard Databases available online.


Discover more about the planning of God's Acre in Salem, notable graves and points of interest in the cemetery, and how the dead are honored every year. Sabrina Garity will highlight maps and surveys that feature the graveyard as well as archival records that relate, including the archeological projects conducted at St. Philips Church.


Meaghan O'Riordan will walk guests through the Graveyard Database, which connects to the Archives' digital Memoir Collection, allowing users to find the location of an individual's gravesite across the Southern Province.
