Effingham County. Guyton. This is the first cemetery I have visited where the children’s monuments outnumbered the adult ones. The clouds were perfect that day. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #exploregeorgia #effinghamcounty #guyton #guytonga

Early County. Blakely. I need to revisit. There were several monuments in the small town cemetery. When I visited, it was a hot, cloudless day. I need to revisit in the fall. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #exploregeorgia #earlycounty #blakelyga

Dooly County. This cemetery in South Georgia was my favorite unexpected find. These are a couple of the monuments you’d find in Vienna City Cemetery. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #doolycounty #viennaga #exploregeorgia

DeKalb County finds. The first photo is of a small sculpture set on a headstone in the Stone Mountain Cemetery. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #exploregeorgia #dekalbcounty #stonemountain

Dougherty County. I have visited Oakview Cemetery several times over the last few years. I never tire of photographing the Martha Jones monument, one of my favorites. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #exploregeorgia #albanyga #oakviewcemetery #doughertycounty

Dodge County. Eastman, Georgia. This is one of the few monuments that is listed with the National Register of Historic Places. The mausoleum depicts Mr and Mrs AG Williamson and their nephew. The Williamson family donated the land for Orphans Cemetery. It’s a must see. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #exploregeorgia #eastmanga #orphanscemetery #dodgecountry (at Williamson Mausoleum at Orphans Cemetery)

One of my favorite trips traveling around the state of Georgia is when I spent a weekend in Thomasville, Georgia. One of the counties I visited while in Southwest Georgia was Decatur County. If you get a chance, I highly recommend a visit. The first three photos are finds in Oak City Cemetery. The final photo is from a very small town cemetery in Brinson. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #exploregeorgia #decaturcountyga #bainbridgega #brinsonga (at Oak City Cemetary)

Photo 1 is from Dade County in northwest Georgia. The second photo is from Dawson County in north Georgia. No monuments were found on my visits, so if you know of any, please let me know. #exploregeorgia #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #dadecountyga #dawsoncountyga

Almost all of the monuments I have found have been in municipal or private cemeteries, not directly tied to a religious organization. Sometimes I am surprised when I do find them there. The monuments featured here can be found in Crawford County’s Little Union Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery. The Taylor monument (the last photo) is listed with the Smithsonian. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #exploregeorgia #crawfordcounty #robertaga (at Roberta, Georgia)

Columbia County is the home of Oliver Hardy of Laurel and Hardy. Was unable to locate any large Victorian statuary. Due to its location along the Savannah River, I feel there must be some somewhere. If you have any leads, let me know. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #exploregeorgia #columbiacounty #harlemga (at Harlem, Georgia)

Colquitt County has several wonderful monuments.

I am temporarily skipping over Cobb County to take us to Coffee County.

There is Victorian statuary in Clayton County, but this is my favorite handmade headstone I have ever found. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #claytoncounty #rocksprings #exploregeorgia #handmadeheadstone

These next two photos are from Fort Gaines in Clay County, Georgia. Unfortunately, I didn’t spend much time here because of how overgrown the cemetery was. If you look closely, you can tell there’s a lot of tree and plant growth. Of all the city cemeteries I have visited, this one was in the worst condition I have seen. It’s a shame because there is amazing iron work and statuary there. In 1890, there were almost 8000 people who lived there. Now there are only 3000. With a median household income of $27,000, it is not a surprise the cemetery is in such a state. I would like to revisit in the winter months where I am less concerned with ticks and snakes. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #fortgaines #fortgainesga #claycounty #exploregeorgia

This is the final resting place of TM Brady, the sculptor of the Lion of Atlanta. He is buried in a family plot in Cherokee County. #grave_galley #graveyard_dead #aj_graveyards #tv_churchandgraves #taphophiles_only #graveyard #cemetery_shots #cemetery #fa_sacral #cemetery_freaks #graveyard_freaks #project_necropolis #cemetery #cemetery_nerd #graveyard_life #grave_gallery #graveyard_photogroup #todieforimages #_click_gravestone #cherokeecounty #cantonga #lionofatlanta #oaklandcemetery #riverviewcemetery
