Audio tour Cemetery West section Veterans of the First Congregational Church of

Welcome to the tour of the veterans in the west section of the cemetery of First Church, Greenwich, CT. The purpose of this tour is to make placing of flags to honor our veterans before Memorial Day faster and more accurate. Because of that, this is not an audio guide. Be sure to scroll down in each veteran’s description to see the walking instructions to the next headstone.

The west side is generally the oldest section of our cemetery. There are one Revolutionary War soldier, eight Civil War soldiers, one who was in the War of 1812, one in the Spanish American War and several in WW I and WW II buried here. We are indebted to their service.

Map view is the default. (Upper left on the map.) Click on Satellite view to see better detail. That view has a Rotate button on the right so you can rotate the view to south-facing when you start, then rotate it back to north-facing when you are walking back north. Please watch your step when you're on the grass.

OK, next, go down the driveway by the church toward Sound Beach Ave. to almost the bottom end. In the first row is Isaac B. Palmer's old headstone.
