A Virtual Cemetery created by Susan C. Rodriguez

North Carolina Governors

Inspired by Alden Hobbs' book NORTH CAROLINA GOVERNORS AND THEIR FINAL RESTING PLACES, I am on a quest to visit as many graves of North Carolina colonial and state governors as possible. For now, this virtual cemetery only includes memorials pertaining to graves I have already visited. I have added marker transcriptions and photographs to memorials from which they were missing.
