St. Mary's Cemetery: the Drinans

Forest Hills in Boston

Located in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood in south Boston, Forest Hills nearly rivals grandeur of Mount auburn in Cambridge. A wonderful place to walk and take in the highlights of carefully cultivated natural wonders juxtaposed against unique products of a creative imagination.

Statuary at Swan Point

If you have ever been in Providence, RI and never been to Swan Point, you've missed an incredible opportunity to see one of the best garden style cemeteries on the East Coast.

Sited on the west bank of the Seekonk River Swan Point is home to Union General Ambrose Burnside, a controversial military figure during the American Civil War, and H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937), whose epitaph reads: "I am Providence." According to the cemetery guide, he wrote these words to a friend in 1927 upon a return from an unpleasant journey to New York City. (Lovecraft was a lifelong resident of Providence.)

The cemetery also possesses some of the finest outdoor sculpture in New England:

When you go to the cemetery be sure and stop in at the office, located to the left as you pass through the impressive rock entrance. Even if the office is closed, a handy map and historical walking tour guide are always available and free.
