Old Roswell Cemetery

This is a great old cemetery for several reasons!
Old Roswell Cemetery was originally the burial ground for the Mt. Carmel Methodist Church which was founded in 1846. The original church was of wood construction and when it was expanded and moved the burial ground opened to the public. I believe the Church was situated on the high ground of the property.
1) Nice place to take a reflective walk especially if it’s drizzling out.
2) Have seen on more then one occasion — paranormal investigators hanging about around dusk — how festive is that? Was told it is quite a «hot» spot.
3) Close proximity to Lucky’s Burgers which makes a great place to grab a brew after ghost hunting or reflective strolling.

When Mimi is in the east coast, she visits old things.
Like author homes, plantations, museums, structures.
But sometimes, Mimi finds herself staring at a wonderful piece of land that can only be characterized as… a cemetary.
It was in Roswell that Mimi found a historic district preserved since the early 19^th century. The cemetary Mimi found was originally a Methodist cemetary in 1848. and it completely fascinated her to learn there were 2000+ graves and 12 different kinds of tombstones. She wondered about the families in the family plots. some as old as 1813 (interestingly enough). The epitaphs told short stories of a life lived depending on their stone type, decoration and size.
Some stones were so old, the epitaphs were worn away by the times. Imagine… to think it is still an active site!
Does Mimi talk in the third person often?
Yes, indeed!
Will Mimi ever venture here at night?
NOPE! She is too much a scaredy cat — but she knows there are ghost tours and supposed hauntings that occur. ;)
