OPEN TO THE PUBLIC DAILY,
DAWN TO DUSK
Easton Cemetery has been in operation since 1849 and still active.
It’s on the National Register of Historic Places, and one of our more notable permanent residents is George Taylor, signer of the Declaration of Independence.
It’s a park, a history book waiting to be opened, a quiet spot for reflection, a time to visit the deceased, a place to walk your dog, and an active burial ground. It's a outdoor sculpture garden, filled with Victorian gravestones carved as angels, tree trunks, obelisks and more.
