on the second to last "FATHER AND MOTHER" one, you'll see a metal disc near the base. Those are marked "Eternal Care" and tend to be in better shape than other graves. As well as they keep the place up, you do run into LOTS of graves that are knocked over from gravity or weather... many graves are on very steep hills and topple over. some wear down over time. in many cases, you'll find pieces of the stone scattered nearby, often the toppers for some of the older and more rococo pieces poke up from the ground like chess pieces or wedding decorations. In many cases, especially where there's delicate sculpture work near to the ground, time has worn the stone down so much that it's barely recognizable as a form. Some of those fetal pieces are strangely touching and sad.

Some damaged and worn markers:

great photos, forks!

did you come across any 'white bronze' (actually zinc) headstones in your travels? I tend to look out for them when I'm walking through a cemetery. you can spot them by their color and sharp lettering (or by knocking on them) and they always seem to be extremely well-preserved compared to stones of the same vintage.

yes, great thread
<3 those eroded sculptures
yes 'heartbreaking' 'bizarre' 'intense'
terrifyingly, uncannily beautiful

thanks for the kind words

Helluva story on this stone, so I'll transcribe:

"Sacred to the Memory of Dr. WILLIAM ADAMS, born & educated in Ireland. For 75 years a citizen of the State of New York came on a visit to this city August 11th 1829. Died January 20 1859, Aged 100 Years. Beside him, lies a descendent of the fourth generation, Aged 1 day. Recovered from Frederick Township, Maryland; June 19 1805"

some real pressure points from that link

Padilla began working at Green-Wood three years after the 9/11 attacks. He started as a part-time landscaper, but three years later, in 2007, a full-time job opened up. To land it, Padilla had to complete a 40-day trial that culminated in a unique test given to all prospective Green-Wood employees: dig a full-size grave by himself in under four hours.

“I dug the hole, and I cried the minute I was done, like a little baby,” said Padilla, who was then 27. “It was a major accomplishment for myself.”

“I love coming here every day, even with everything that’s happening,” Padilla said. “Have you seen this place?” he said when asked why. “How beautiful it is?”

Padilla said the crisis hit him especially hard one day last week when he noticed two sets of remains came in the same day, a man and woman with the same last name. Padilla said it appeared they were a husband and wife who both died from COVID-19, apparently within hours of each other.

Padilla drove toward the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway and headed east, nodding his head to tracks from the late rapper Pop Smoke. He soon pulled up outside his home in Middle Village, Queens, where he lives with his girlfriend.

It was nearing 10 p.m. Padilla knew there were about two dozen sets of remains waiting for him when he showed up at work the next morning. Thursday was the first day of his work week. He had six more days ahead of him. But he wasn’t thinking about that now. He was exhausted and just wanted to take a shower. Padilla walked into his bedroom and kicked off his shoes, but he never made it to the shower. He lay down in his bed, still fully dressed, and drifted off into a deep sleep.

Speaking of Pop Smoke, I kept running into groups of kids in hoodies in the same section of the cemetery and couldn't figure out why... that's hardly a regular occurrence. A bit of research revealed he was buried in one of the new sections of the cemetery and they must be paying respects. I'll try to find and get a photo next time I'm in there.

I have a few hundred more pictures from the past two weeks but it takes time to upload and curate and read up on the histories... anybody care?

I like looking and reading the histories (if they're short). But it's on your time, so do what you will.

Experimental/Broadway composer/singer/songwriter Gelsey Bell just released a music-infused walking tour of Green-Wood; I'm a fan of her work and figure this is worth $7 for either a virtual exploration or an in-person one if you're nearby enough to do it there. I'll test drive afore too long.
