About this Event
As the final resting place of over 580,000 individuals, there are countless stories to be told within Green-Wood’s gates. That’s why for Green-Wood Historian Jeff Richman, every day is a new discovery. There is always a new "find" to be made, whether it be an overlooked old monument or an interesting figure, forgotten through time. Join Jeff for a trolley tour as he shares the latest stories he’s uncovered, including those of Revolutionary War patriots reinterred at Green-Wood years after their death, 9/11 victims, and many others.
