  Beautiful Grove. Lots of tender history here of hardship in burying young loved-ones. Peaceful and quiet location.

  It was great to visit this cemetery. I really appreciate that a building was made with a list of the names of those that were buried there, because most of the headstones are severely weathered, deteriorated, and unreadable. A few seem to have been replaced, but it seems that most graves are not even marked. If there are any maps or records of where people are buried, it would be nice to add that to the information there. Our family is looking into ways of contributing to restoration efforts, since we have ancestors there--we would encourage others to do likewise There was definitely a peaceful, reverent, & solemn spirit about this place.

  This historical site is my favorite in all of Nauvoo. The scenery is beautiful, and the cemetery itself has many interesting features. This is an excellent place to ponder quietly or honor ancestors. The historical cemetery is a great spot for hiking and alone time. (They should probably have more pictures shown)
