201 W Oglethorpe AveSavannah GA 912-651-6843
Description:
HISTORIC DISTRICT. This central city graveyard is the resting place of many early Savannah residents, especially from the 1750-1853 time frame. Buried here, for instance, is Buttin Gwinnett, a signer of the Declaration of Independence. The cemetery is also a highlight on many of the city's famous ghost tours. While the grave-markers are not as elaborate as those found in the Bonaventure cemetery, the place is, nevertheless, interesting.
