Karen Good, President of the Yorktown Museum and Genealogy Center, will share information about interesting epitaphs found in Beech Grove Cemetery, as well as those on the graves of famous celebrities. Epitaphs date back to ancient Egypt, where inscriptions on sarcophagi and coffins recorded the identity and achievements of the deceased, often carrying religious significance to ensure safe passage to the afterlife.
Offered in partnership with Beech Grove Cemetery, Ball State University’s E.B. and Bertha C. Ball Center, and the Yorktown Museum and Genealogy Center.
