Established in 1834, the Cumming Historic Cemetery is the oldest cemetery in Forsyth County and is the final resting place for many of Forsyth County's original settlers. Join FCPL staff on a guided walking tour of the cemetery to discover the history of the cemetery, the stories of unique individuals buried there, and the architecture of tombstones. FCPL staff will also discuss how to use cemeteries as a tool in your genealogy research.

Please bring water and wear suitable footwear and clothing. Participants are asked to meet outside the front gates of the cemetery. If the weather is unfavorable, the program will meet in Meeting Room B of the Sharon Forks Library.
