Cimetière nord de Laurel Grove
Avant même que le féminisme ne soit un concept, les femmes de Savannah menaient des vies fascinantes et audacieuses de créativité et d'innovation qui ont influencé et parfois secoué le monde ! Pourtant, comme tant de réalisations de femmes dans le Sud, elles ont fait les pages de l'histoire ou se sont perdues pour elles. C'est étrange que tant de ces femmes fabuleuses se soient retrouvées dans un cimetière de Savannah ! Juliette Gordon-Low, fondatrice des Girl Scouts of The USA Florence Martus, alias "La fille qui agite" Nina Pape, éducatrice et fondatrice de l'école Pape Eugenia Phillips, espionne bannie de la guerre civile Mary Marshall, philanthrope et bâtisseuse Phoebe Pember, célèbre infirmière de la guerre civile Mary Haskell, muse bienfaitrice du poète-peintre Kahlil Gibran Les discussions de la tournée incluront également les nombreux rôles des femmes dans la société victorienne, les traditions très particulières autour des funérailles, ainsi que des organisations sociales comme l'Ordre de l'Étoile de l'Est, les Filles de Rebekkah et d'autres mouvements de femmes.

Before feminism was even a concept, Savannah women were leading fascinating, daring lives of creativity and innovation that influenced and sometimes shook the world! Yet like so many accomplishments of women in The South, they either made the history pages or went lost to them. Its uncanny that so many of these fabulous women ended up in one Savannah cemetery! Juliette Gordon-Low, Founder of The Girl Scouts of The USA Florence Martus, aka, "The Waving Girl" Nina Pape, Educator & Founder of The Pape School Eugenia Phillips, Banished Civil War Spy Mary Marshall, Philanthropist & Builder Phoebe Pember, Famed Civil War Nurse Mary Haskell, Benefactress Muse to Poet-Painter Kahlil Gibran Tour discussions will also include the many roles of women in Victorian Society, the very particular traditions around funerals, along with social organizations like The Order of The Eastern Star, The Daughters of Rebekkah and other women's movements.

Paschal went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience. The two hours flew by while we learned about several of the famous former Savannah residents who were buried there. His depth of knowledge and story telling was great. The access we received to things we would have missed on our own added to the interest level. Highly recommend this tour. Oh did I mention how personable and funny Paschal was??? It made for a great time.

Pascal was awesome! He knowledge of the cemetery was so much greater than we expected. He also knew so much about the history of the time and the religions of each person he spoke to us about. We loved learning about all of the ladies that helped build Savannah and we loved that he also threw in some other historical figures of the time that were buried nearby. What impressed us the most though was his knowledge of the symbolism of each item on all of the headstones and monuments/statues in the cemetery. DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT miss an opportunity to take one of his tours. I especially recommend this one because of how close you can get to each site.

Wow, Brynna, we're all so utterly honored and pleased that Paschal delivered such an outstanding performance and impressed enough for you to bless again with some time here informing others of the experience! We love personalism for personalism so thank you very much for your own and hope that we've inspired you to return and tour with us again!
