Greenlawn Cemetery features rows of intricate Victorian monuments set against a backdrop of deep, sloping woodlands. Established in eighteen ninety-four, it follows the rural cemetery movement that prioritized winding paths and natural landscapes over rigid, city-style burial grounds. One particular plot holds the remains of Doctor William Mack, a local physician who bequeathed the money necessary to secure this land. His foresight shifted the town’s focus toward a space that balances quiet reflection with the sprawling, deliberate geometry of late nineteenth-century mourning.
