Tomac Cemetery


(full album here)


This little-known burial ground (at least was little-known to me until now) is the site of my town's first settlement. It's the oldest burial ground in town (obviously), and backs up to the Innis Arden Golf Course. Many of the tombstones are illegible and many more are in need of repair.. Some of the stones' remnants are so tiny that you need to be careful not to trip over them.



There are a good number of revolutionary war veterans buried here, along with Civil War.
