  • Laurel Grove Cemetery is a cemetery located in midtown Savannah, Georgia. It includes the original cemetery for whites (now known as Laurel Grove North) and a companion burial ground (called Laurel Grove South) that was reserved for slaves and free people of color. The original cemetery has countless graves of many of Savannah's Confederate veterans of the American Civil War. Laurel Grove South holds the graves of thousands of slaves and free blacks from coastal Georgia. The cemetery was dedicated in 1852. The lawyer and poet Henry Rootes Jackson delivered the dedication address. With lush plantings and beautifully carved stones, both sections of Laurel Grove Cemetery resemble more famous Victorian-era graveyards such as Green-Wood in New York City and Père Lachaise in Paris. The south section of the cemetery was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1978 and the north section was added to the NRHP in 1983. (en)
  • Le cimetière de Laurel Grove est un cimetière situé dans le centre-ville de Savannah, en Géorgie. Il comprend le cimetière d'origine pour les Blancs (maintenant connu comme Laurel Grove North) et un terrain de sépulture associé (appelé Laurel Grove South) qui a été réservé pour les esclaves et les gens de couleur libres. Le cimetière d'origine a d'innombrables tombes de d'anciens combattants confédérés de Savannah de la guerre de Sécession. Laurel Grove South contient les tombes de milliers d'esclaves et de Noirs libres de la côte de la Géorgie. Le cimetière a été consacré en 1852. L'avocat et poète Henry Rootes Jackson a fait le discours de consécration. Avec de luxuriantes plantations et des pierres magnifiquement gravées, les deux sections du cimetière de Laurel Grove ressemblent plus aux célèbres cimetières de l'époque victorienne comme le Green-Wood à New York et le Père Lachaise à Paris.
