Walking Tour of the Powell Cemetery
The Group at the Marker for the First Burial
The rain stayed farther north allowing for the tour to take place. The group heard some of the history of Powell from our host Sherry Carmichael and reenactors representing Asa Gordon Hall, May Duffy, Ethel Crist, and John Pendleton. Many of the group then returned to the Martin-Perry House for ice cream and conversation.
If you missed the tour, consider joining us for one of the downtown walking tours in July and August.
