Tombstone Tales presented by the Florida Public Archaeology Network: Summer Program for Adults

Historic cemeteries are amazing outdoor museums containing vast amounts of information on markers and tombstones that can be “read” like historic documents. This presentation describes the development of the modern cemetery, the kinds of information that can be learned from inscriptions and symbols on markers, the laws protecting historic cemeteries in Florida, and ways to protect them for the future.

Virtual Summer Information will be available on the library Facebook pages: Bay County Public Library, Panama City Beach Public Library, Corinne Costin Gibson Memorial Public Library in Port St. Joe, Charles Whitehead Public Library in Wewahitchka, and Liberty County Public Libraries.
