Featuring Friendship Cemetery in Columbus, Natchez City Cemetery and the Chapel of the Cross Cemetery in Madison County.
Cemeteries around the state are hallowed places that tell us a lot about our history, like Cedar Hill Cemetery in Vicksburg, one of the country’s oldest and largest cemeteries that’s still in use today. Then we head up to Friendship Cemetery in Columbus where our national Memorial Day holiday has its roots. Down Highway 61 in Natchez, many of the state’s first settlers found their resting places. Finally, the haunting story of Henry Vick at Chapel of the Cross in Madison County plays a central role in that area’s history.

ORIZABA - Old Cemetery & the Giant's Monolith
The first time there was an attempt to secularize the Cemeteries in the Spanish Kingdom happened on April 3rd, 1787, when King Charles III signed an edict that would reestablish the control of all the kingdom's Cemeteries to the secular powers. The churches and their grounds could not be used to bury the remains of the subjects. The motion was motivated by the Miasmatic Movement ( to avoid illnesses and infections that emanated from the miasmas -bad air- from and around the churches). It proposed the ending of the old tradition of burying the dead whitin the church's grounds to avoid the contamination of the air and water.
Both, the church and the citizentry rejected the royal edict since they believed the spirits of the deseaced would be more 'protected' within the church's grounds and the fact that was a tremendous revenue for the church. The sanitary measurement did not take effect until the year 1809, when the first Municipal Cemetery was open to the public in the City of Madrid, the Fuencarral Cemetery.
In Mexico, the tradition did not change until after the War of Independence and particularly, after the expulsion of the powerful spanish priests from the new independent Mexico.
In the City of Orizaba, the tradition did not cease until the year 1825, when the first Secular Cemetery became a reality. Until then, the city's wealthy classes buried their dead within the walls of the Temple of Saint Michael the Archangel and those who could not afford the tremendous fortunes asked by the church to use the building as last resting place had to do with the atrium or around the church's grounds. The rest of the city's catholic churches followed the same ancient tradition. The Saint Michael Archangel's Temple's deceased overpopulation reached the tipping point when the bones started surfacing after the city's frequent rain storms.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jedediah Peck (January 28, 1748 -- August 15, 1821) was an American farmer, surveyor, Revolutionary War soldier, and New York State legislator described as a father of the common school system of the State of New York. He was a man of limited education and had no gift as a debater or speaker, but he was a skillful organizer. (His first name has occasionally been spelled Jedidiah or Jedadiah in the literature.)
An outspoken opponent of the John Adams administration and the Federalist Party in New York State, Peck was arrested by Federalist Judge William Cooper for circulating a petition against the Adams-era Alien and Sedition Acts and taken to jail in chains; massive protests from Peck supporters and opponents of the administration won his release without trial.
Peck was born in Lyme, Connecticut, one of thirteen children of Elijah Peck and Hepzibah Pierson. He was raised on the family farm, and his formal education was limited to attending a country grammar school, but he taught himself by reading the Bible many times over. In 1771 at about age 23, Peck returned from a sea voyage to learn that his parents, three brothers and a sister had died. He became extremely depressed and wrote in his journal that he longed for:
Days and times past when may father and Mother and all my bretherin and Sisters were about me in helth and prosperity but alas! trubel and Sorow hath Sorounded me and I am a poor Disconsolate Cretur. There is no place that Seemes to be home to me.
He kept that journal in a secret drawer in his desk throughout the remainder of his life, and from that time he became quite evangelical about his faith.
He served four years as an enlisted man in the American Revolutionary Army. In 1790 he settled in what was to become the town of Burlington, Otsego County, New York. When Burlington was formed from a part of the Town of Otsego in 1792, Jedediah Peck became Burlington's first Town Supervisor and remained in that job for eight years. He is said to have been elected to the position three times, the latest in 1820, when he would have been 73.
He also worked as a surveyor and millwright, studied law, was appointed as a judge, wrote political tracts, and conducted religious services on request. He is said to have been seen as an awkward figure, with his drawling, nasal, yankee twang and his saddle-bags filled with political papers and scraps that he distributed to all who would listen.
Peck was a strong anti-Federalist, and in 1798, Judge William Cooper, an ardent Federalist, had him arrested by a United States Marshal under the Alien and Sedition Acts for circulating petitions against those very acts. Peck was taken in irons to be tried in New York City. The spectacle of the martyred war hero being transpored in chains only served to help the Republican cause. Peck was soon released without trial.
He was a member of the New York State Legislature for eleven years, in the Assembly (1798--1804) and in the Senate (1804 to 1808).
While in the State Assembly (in 1801, 1803 and 1804), Jedediah Peck sponsored bills to establish common schools in the state, but each resolution was rejected. In 1811, after Peck's retirement from active politics, Governor Daniel D. Tompkins appointed Peck chairman of a five man commission to study the problem of public school education. In five months the commission reported the fundamental principals of New York's educational system. In 1812, a bill become law and the basic foundation of the state's public school system was established. The law requires:
that there be a division of towns into school districts;
that there be trustees in each district to superintend those schools;
that each town raise taxes as much as it received from the state school fund;
that the funds be divided among the various towns on a population basis, and then subdivided among the school districts.
In addition to his work in establishing the common school system of New York, he introduced a bill for the abolition of imprisonment for debt which later became a law.
Although nearly seventy years of age at the time, he served in the War of 1812, and took part in the Battle of Queenston Heights. He died at age 74 and is buried at the [1] in the Town of Burlington, New York. A New York State Historical Marker at the site reads:
In memory of Hon. Jedediah Peck, a Revolutionary Patriot, who died Aug 15, 1821, in the 74th year of his age. The annals of the State bear record of his public usefulness and the recollection of his virtues bear testimony of his private work.

Tremont Hotel in Galveston Texas | Is It Haunted?
Firsthand Haunted Experience at the Tremont Hotel in Galveston, Texas: Galveston, Texas is considered one of the most haunted cities in the United States. And the Tremont House Hotel in Galveston, Texas is known to be one of many haunted establishments. During our lovely stay at the hotel, we experienced what we think to be our own paranormal activity.
This third incarnation of the Tremont was built in the mid-1880s as the Leon & H. Blum Co. Building. Which was the leading Galveston dry goods importer for over 20 years. The building is a survivor of the 1900 Galveston Great Hurricane. A weather event that is estimated to have killed 6000 to 12000 people. And decimated the Island of Galveston and Strand area where the hotel sits. See whole article at:

Sergeant Steve Perez Funeral - Folding & Presentation of the U.S. Flag
On Wednesday, 13 September 2017, Sgt. Steve A. Perez of the Houston Police Department was laid to rest following a funeral Mass at the Co-Cathedral of the Sacred Heart.
Sgt. Perez perished as he attempted to report for duty, Sunday 27 August, in Hurricane Harvey's catastrophic flooding. Scripture tells us that there is no greater love than to lay down one's life for another--a love no flood can drown. Sgt. Perez paid the ultimate sacrifice, and today we prayed for the repose of his soul and the consolation of his family. We also celebrate his sacrifice and heroic example.
The Catholic funeral liturgy celebrates the Mystery of the Resurrection--the fulfillment of Baptism where one is made new in Christ, transcending all human divisions, nations, and categories. Following the conclusion of the liturgy, Sgt. Perez was honored for his service to city and nation with customary police and military exercises.
This video shows the folding of the American flag that was draped on the casket following the service, and, subsequently, the presentation of it to Sgt. Perez's widow.
The Most Reverend George A. Sheltz, Auxiliary Bishop of Galveston-Houston, presided at the funeral Mass in the presence of His Eminence Daniel Cardinal DiNardo, Archbishop of Galveston-Houston. In addition to concelebrant Archbishop Emeritus Joseph A. Fiorenza, Rev. Anthony Udoh M.S.P.--Parochial Vicar at Sgt. Perez's parish in Humble--participated, serving as homilist.
Public dignitaries in attendance included Texas Governor Greg Abbott, Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, Mayor of the City of Houston Sylvester Turner, Chief of Police Art Acevedo, and others.
Cataloging Louisiana Coastal Cemeteries
Louisiana's coastal cemeteries are a rich source of cultural history. Cemeteries can also provide valuable clues to the present and past identities of a community. Louisiana's coast is under a great threat from coastal erosion and storm surge. As people are forced to move inland, cemeteries are left abandoned and are often overlooked as part of the cultural landscape. In terms of erosion, when the land goes, the cemetery goes with it. Or, the combination of coastal subsidence and sea level rise causes permanent inundation. A project funded by Louisiana Sea Grant seeks to record coastal cemetery data before they are lost to the forces of erosion and the Gulf of Mexico.
