It's fall that means it's cemetery time! See the alt text for more information This is Van Horn cemetery in rural Hancock County Ohio

A grave stone with a big sphere on top I love graves like this. We need more stuff like this with some character in cemeteries. Fun fact there's the grave like this in Marion Ohio where the sphere won't stop spinning A grave with a sphere on top Yet another grave like this A grave with a very interesting somewhat pleated pattern on top A grave that looks like a chess live but with columns

More pics Again check the alt text

A few headstone surrounded by a wooden border You see family plots like this occasionally It have the vibe of being private without being private A bench surrounded by flags and memorabilia that is actually a grave. This is unusual and I'm here for it. A tombstone that has fallen over You see tombstones that have gotten damaged or have fallen over and since most cemeteries don't repair tombstones they lay there like that A grave partially hidden in some shrubs You see this every so often where tombstones are partially or totally obscured by shrubs or bushes

I'd love that. I've been doing genealogy from well before the inception of Ancestry. Cemetery trolling was kinda de rigueur. Still is for many of us.

Here's one look for the Colonel Crawford Memorial, it's kind of close to Carey, Ohio. There is not only the memorial but this quaint little cemetery in the woods, that's still active, next to it.

Right up my alley The Eagle Creek Brethen church & cemetery is one of my favorites, the abandoned feel & I enjoy taking b&w shots. It's a whole mood, for me anyway

This is Dunn cemetery by McCutchenville One thing is you have to walk about a quarter mile on a dirt path to get to it. bsky.app/profile/astr...

Not an issue for me. While in TN ancestor chasing, there were several requiring a walk up a mountain trail P.S.-It wasn't me finding a family plot in the middle of corn fields when we moved out of town and using it as my personal private spot as a pre-teen/teenager 🙃
