  • Of course this was before the Leo Frank trial of 1914 in which Anti-Semitism ran so high in Georgia that ONE-FOURTH of Georgia's Jews left the state.

  • Excellent video!

  • Excellent video. Fascinating piece and well done. I'm reviewing it for Epitaphs Magazine Online. Great job!  -Minda, TheCemeteryClub

  • Interesting, thanks. I love Oakland Cemetery. I was taking some pictures there last week and was near the entrance. A redheaded boy came running up to me and asked me if I worked at the cemetery. I told him no, and then, he asked if I knew where the Jewish section was. I did. I told him down the hill on the left. He yelled to his family and they all went off in search of the Jewish section. Nice video.
