Welcome from the Valley's Leading Cemetery Historian
You are at the only blog that tells the stories of the unfamous and forgotten who rest in the cemeteries of the Phoenix/Mesa/Tempe area. There are dozens of stories here, and the number grows every day or two. The latest posts include:
• The Hidden Paupers, buried beyond it all;
• Eseues Ioma, who I will call Jesus Gama;
• Judge Taylor, Mesa's overlooked pioneer;
• Exploring the Cemetery's Segregation, quiet but real;
• Cleaning off the pieces, and the puzzle takes shape;
• Sarah (Chambers) Myers, who has two headstones;
• Mount Sinai Jewish Cemetery (Phoenix);
Each is lifted from past to present: remembered to life. If it's all new to you, just click the logo for the front page. No ads, no product pitches, no pleas for money—just people to meet.
