FULL! History Tour—Quidnessett Cemetery
More than 100 years ago when New Englanders began the transition from small family graveyards located on the family farm to large centrally located public cemeteries, landscape architects and designers envisioned the cemeteries they were planning as beautiful public places for peaceful contemplative introspection. Join Tim Cranston at North Kingstown’s most attractive public park and garden, the Quidnessett Cemetery on Post Road, and learn about the history of this beautiful place and some of the remarkable folks that “rest eternal” therein. We’ll meet in the parking lot behind the office at 6365 Post Rd. Registration is required!!
