2024 Memorial Walking Tour #1 of Chillicothe’s Historic Grandview Cemetery

May 26 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

$5 – $15

Local historian and guide Kevin Coleman will interpret the family graveyard that was there before the cemetery, the funerary architecture and symbolism of all the monuments, the historic stone quarry at the rim, the history around the site, the geology of the location…and even what you see in the grand views.

Join me for a guided tour that compliments the annual Memorial Day ceremony (on May 27th). My tour will be 2pm to about 4pm on both Sunday, May 26th (as well as Saturday, June 8th).*

The tour begins near the Renick stone walls (two stars on the attached map), ends near the cell tower (near no. 4 on the map), and might be extended to the gazebo / bandstand (no. 6 on the map).

The tour for a maximum of about 25 people is $10 for adults, $5 for students, and $15 for families (three to six family members including children). Pay “at the door” at with cash or check.

You can make reservations at [email protected], phone 740 / 775-4036, text 740 / 771-8574, or message from this Facebook page. If the weather is inclement, the tour will be rescheduled and those who have contacted me will be notified.
