Here are some pictures from our adventure. Bill has always been the photographer in the family, but now the camera frustrates him. All of the pictures we took were of the cemetery except for one of the bridges to Louisiana taken from our hotel window. I am not a good photographer. My perspective gets all out of whack. Plus, taking them from inside the car for the most part. But, they are what they are.

 

These wrought iron fences seemed to go on forever. I'm sure they are all family plots.

 As you see there are lots of different styles of monuments.

 

Another large monument.

And another...

When we drove by this one the 1st time Bill said "that one escaped, the grave was open!' so we drove back and, sure enough, the top was off of the grave liner! We didn't get out to see if there was a coffin inside, but with that off and the gate standing open...

 

 

 

The Turning Angel. This stone is featured prominently in the books set in Natchez by Greg Iles. I actually thought it would be larger than it was, and there was another one nearby that was larger. But, according to the map of the cemetery, this one is the original.

 

I was going to post the picture of the bridges but when I uploaded it, it turned sideways. If any of you like old cemeteries, you could spend days wandering through here. There was 1 section that was dedicated to confederate soldiers, but we didn't get any pictures of those.
