I visted the grave of my 7 generations back grandfather at the Presbyterian Church in a tiny town called Fairhaven Ohio. He was the church's founder. The stone featured a bio on one side and a truly dreadful poem on the other. I hope I'm not descended from the poet.

My sister and I took our cousin John Caldwell there in 2002. We took him around to find Caldwells and Porters, then he sat and reminisced about his boyhood in the 1920s. It was an interesting trip.

If you stop by Homewood Cemetery in Pittsburgh, You'll find the grave of Andrew Carnegie's business partner, Henry Clay Frick. The S.O.B.'s grave is surrounded by a brass fence. I've always wondered if it was to keep us out or him in.

Stephen Collins Foster is buried in Allegheny Cemetery in Pittsburgh as are Lillian Russell (Well, she's entombed, but she's there.) and Harry Thaw.
