Why This Site Exists

Apalachicola's cemeteries hold two centuries of the town's story — its founders and fishermen, its epidemics and storms, the families whose names are still on the storefronts. Markers weather, records scatter, and memory fades. This site is a place to gather what is known and keep it findable.

What You'll Find Here

Histories — Articles on the cemeteries themselves and the people buried in them.

Records — Transcriptions, plot maps, and photographs as they are compiled.
