    Oak Grove Falmouth - Little pixie creature

    Oak Grove Falmouth

    (3 reviews)

    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.
