Ye Antientist Burial Ground, New London, Ct.


While not as "Grand" as the giant statuary that would follow later, the work that went into the stones in this Cemetery are none the less beautiful. The use of sandstone for the stones led to the stones being repaired at a later date, and even those have suffered the  ravages of time. This Cemetery is one of the oldest in New England.
