Walking Tour on Saturday, November 28, 2020 at 1:00 pm
Our Unlisted tour focuses on graves that are either unmarked or inadequately marked. Learn the story of the Confederate spy-turned-dentist who went on to treat two U.S. presidents, the woman whose heart is in the right place (the rest of her is elsewhere), the most elaborate yet anonymous mausoleum you’re ever likely to see, and the scandalous story behind the three-dollar “Elvis” bill.
You won’t believe what you don’t see!
