Cedar Hill Cemetery (Part 1)
(Elaborate rusted gates of an unknown plot at Cedar Hill Cemetery) Elevated at the top of historical Port Jefferson, NY, is Cedar Hill....
The Story
I have always been facinated by cemeteries... a taphophile, a tombstone enthusiast. Many find it to be quite a peculiar passion of mine and of others that share it. I believe there is a somber beauty, a different peace that I find in cemeteries. I am intrigued by the history of these places and the past of its inhabitants. I ponder what type of life did they live, were they loved, are they remembered? From unmarked to the most elaborate of mosoleums, exploring my own sense of mortality and purpose, join me as I explore the History & Headstones of unique individuals and their final resting place.
