an introduction
Cemeteries are among my favorite places to visit.
To a great extent, they are places of history and artistry but, for me, they are places of
untold stories and of connection to another time and place.
The stories - usually no more than hinted at on the stones - might involve infant sisters
who died eight years apart (plates 26 and 31); a person who died on that most festive of
days, Christmas; or another who left a stone with only their first name.
Nineteenth century stones is the subject of this book because that time is sufficiently
remote for lives to have been dramatically different from ours, but also close enough for
me to have had direct experience with "residents" of that century (my grandparents were
all born within fifteen years of the end of the American Civil War).
To add context, I've included an event that took place in the birth or death year in each
photograph.
This book - 19th Century Years in Stone - results from participation in the
second Solo Photo Book Month [aka SoFoBoMo] from mid-May to early June 2009.
The goal of SoFoBoMo is to produce a PDF book of at least 35 new photographs in 31
days.
