A beautiful, historic cemetery off one of Falmouth's main streets. Peacefully tucked within an oak…read moregrove, it dates back to 1849 (making it surprisingly recent for New England, the same year John Marshall found gold in the American River) There's an array of statuary- embodiments of grief, angels of all kinds (from cherubic children to stunning beauties) There are obelisks, mausoleums, family plots in neat rows. Graves of those who served in the American Revolution, the War of 1812, both World Wars, the Civil War, all have a peaceful resting place. It's a beautiful, reverent place. It's the final resting place of Falmouth-born poet Katherine Lee Bates who penned "America the Beautiful." A beautiful cemetery indeed. Fitting.

Songs and angels…read more The Oak Grove Cemetery was founded in 1849 but has graves that have been relocated from other, smaller graveyards that are much older. Lots of Revolutionary and War of 1812 veterans are buried here as well as many affluent Falmouth residents. In total there are probably over 3,000 residents including Katharine Lee Bates who wrote the famous America the Beautiful. The cemetery was enlarged many times through the years and is now over 22 acres. Most of the memorials are simple with few obelisks or huge and massive gravestones. Some are old and worn while others are fresh and new. Some unique and creative memorials including lighthouses, little fairies and probably the sexy angel I have ever seen. A very cool old graveyard that offers a variety of different memorials and gravestones in a very bucolic and peaceful setting.

Most of the gravestones and memorials are simple and look like they were all carved from the same quarry. Not a lot of variety here, no obelisks or huge crypts, just a whole lot of plain and simple stones with a few larger and more elaborate gravestones scattered around. Many of the stones are well worn and difficult to read, no surprising considering the soft stones and harsh Cape Cod weather. The old graveyard is quiet and peaceful and a nice reflective place to walk around. Lots of plants and trees growing between the gravestones and the entire area is well maintained and quite attractive. A nice cemetery that gives a glimpse of a simpler and less complicated time.

Hyannis Ancient Cemetery lives up to its name. On the Day of the Dead, it is a sobering reminder of…read moremortality. It's on a main thoroughfare in Hyannis, among businesses, restaurants, apartments. Many of the gravestones are from the early 18th century, some have worn away to ancient rocks. Even in the sunlight, it gives off an eerie aura. Many of the graves are now anonymous due to the ravages of time and weather. It's been restored somewhat, it has a new sign. It could use some more upkeep. It looks forgotten, tho Hyannis' South Street is a main drag. It is a somber, sober place to remember those who have passed. A piece of history in busy downtown Hyannis.

Old and worn…read more The Ancient Hyannis Cemetery also goes by the names, South Street Cemetery, Paupers Cemetery or just The Old Cemetery. Makes it a bit confusing but whatever you call it the ancient graveyard is definitely old. Really, really old. The type of place that is spooky as hell, not because of ghosts or any phantasmagoric imagery, but because this place literally looks old, smells old and most of all feels old. It was wet and foggy when we went and I can't imagine the sun every shining here. The late Oct weather made things even more morose but I suspect it's not exactly a cheery place even in may. Many of gravestones are very worn, just down to just nubs or covered in various forms of lichen. I did manage to make out some from the mid 1700s but just barely. The stones are mostly very soft sandstone and didn't hold up well to the brutal weather. In fact most of the people buried here didn't have any headstones or memorials at all. Simply buried in the cold dirt. A very cool and very old and simple graveyard that is a vivid reminder of how things use to be.

I would highly recommend them to anyone.

If you want your loved ones taken care of after they pass away then stay away from this funeral…read morehome! My MIL passed away on a Sunday. We met with Bill from the Kingston location Monday morning. We went over all the costs and details. For a one day 4 hour wake and a meet at the cemetery funeral it was over $9000 without including casket, vault, or anything like that. When we were there Monday morning Bill said my MIL was already embalmed. We had the services on Saturday so 6 days from the date she passed. On the morning of the wake Bill calls me and tells me that my MIL does not look good and she has significant blisters on her face and we should do a closed casket (not my MIL wishes)! Now an embalmed body properly done should not show signs of blistering by day 6. Bill stated he would talk to the owner about getting the embalming fee reimbursed. So the following Tuesday I sent an email to the owners and never got a response. I waited a week and contacted Bill. He stated that the office would give me a call. 5 more days go by with no call. Finally I threaten them with contacting the state and after 2 more phone calls to the answering service someone calls me back and states a refund will be going out in the mail. A whole $690 back from over $9000 given to them for this egregious mishap. $90 of that was because we paid for a hair stylist to come in and do her hair. Also the day of the wake the doorman kept asking the 18-22 year old females "what's the password" before he would open the door for them. Like way to be creepy! Needless to say, we got some money back for their mistake but it doesn't negate the fact that family feels like they never had a real chance to say goodbye. Also never a response from ownership of the funeral home or an apology in any way! I would stay far away from this place!
