Part of the 2009 History Lecture Series, "Our Imprint on the Land," sponsored by the Newton History Museum and the Newton Free Library.
Harry Lohr, Chair of the Newton History Museum Burying Grounds Committee, will present a closer look at Newton's three old burying grounds: the East Parish Burying Ground (1660), the West Parish Burying Ground (1781), and South Burying Ground (1802). These sites, the final resting places of many of Newton's most prominent early citizens, reflect local history and America's history as well. At the Newton Free Library, 330 Homer Street in Newton. Free.
