Greenwood Cemetery

Located at Arrott & Adams Avenue.

Receiving Vault used in the days when graves were dug by hand.

I find this grave site particularly interesting. I wonder how often the family comes to visit.

Stray headstone that ended up against the tree.

Look closely. Yes, there are graves/headstones behind those trees/bushes. For more information and a partial list of burials click http://www.interment.net/data/us/pa/philadelphia/greenwood_pythias/
