This photo names some of the famous people buried in this cemetery. A photo of the opposite side of this sign is already posted.

"Landscape architect Howard Daniels designed the original portion of Green Lawn Cemetery in 1848. Noted Columbus architect Frank Packard designed Green Lawn's Chapel mausoleum. Spanning over 360 acres, the cemetery's wooded setting provides a habitat for a variety of birds and other wildlife. The Chapel contains stunning stained glass windows and mosaic artwork by Tiffany & Company of New. York. The monuments, obelisks, and memorials throughout the cemetery represent a wealth of artwork and a history of Columbus. As one of the oldest and largest cemeteries in Ohio, Green Lawn is the resting-place of many noted individuals who have made significant contributions to Columbus, Franklin County and the nation."

Current map adds new sections and removes hours for Brown Rd. gate as that gate is locked most all times to prevent through traffic.

an example of the section signs within the cemetery. They are all very well marked, so even though it is a HUGE cemetery, these signs really help find graves
