A few out of my library.
Hollywood Cemetery is on the James River in Richmond,
VA.
Edgar Allen Poe has two stones in the Westminster Burial Site in Baltimore. One is the original grave sit. The other is a larger monument honoring Mr. Poe.

Do you know why the church was expanded over the graves?

This from Wikipedia:
In 1852, a church was erected overtop the graveyard, its brick piers straddling gravestones and burial vaults to create what later Baltimoreans referred to as "catacombs." For years, it was thought that the Gothic Revival-style Westminster Presbyterian Church was built in response to a new city ordinance prohibiting cemeteries that were not adjacent to a religious structure.

More great graveyard photos. Poe, pyramids, and Bonaventure to boot!

Here's a few more from me.

Jim.... Next time up to the cemetary, I'll see if I can find Albert or any Perrin. There are a lot of stones missing and many hard to impossible to read, but I will take a look.
