Mabry Cemetery  Established 1859 by soboy5

Mabry Cemetery Established 1859

I've lived on Mabry Road in Cobb County, Georgia for 20 years. But it wasn't until this week that I learned that the family who originally settled this area has a family cemetery within walking distance of where I live! It is amazing what we can learn about our surroundings when we are looking for photo ops!

The Mabry Cemetery was established in 1859. It is tucked away in a quiet street in a quiet subdivision. Today will begin a short mini-series on my discovery. This series will be more history lesson and less fine art, but I think you will find the history interesting.

Looks better enlarged.

Very interesting capture and I'm going to see your mini series. They are always very good.

Can't wait to see your mini-series. I know a lot of the history where I live because our town is just now 50 years old and I have been here for most of it. But, a lot of people do not know the history behind the names. I find it fascinating. Glad you will be sharing.
