Historic Easton Cemetery

Walking or driving through the rolling hills of the cemetery is like going back through time. There are intricately carved monuments from the Victorian era when symbolism was used to tell the story of the person buried there.  There are buildings including a chapel, a large mausoleum and many smaller, family mausoleums.  Unlike many historic cemeteries today, Easton Cemetery still has room for burials.
