This angel sits at the edge of the Moxley Cemetery. There’s no name at the base. I am uncertain if this is simply decorative, or it’s supposed to mark someone grave.

Evergreen Cemetery-Savannah, Georgia
Chatham County
I visited the cemetery in Savannah for the first time in 2014. It’s a historic African American cemetery that has faced hardship due to poor management. While the lack of care for the cemetery is problematic, the vernacular headstones remind us how much these people were loved.
As of 2021, the owner of the cemetery has passed away, and families are still struggling to get the cemetery cleaned.
Sardis United Methodist Church Cemetery-Atlanta, Georgia
Oral history states that the church started in 1812 in a log cabin on the current property. The cemetery has been in existence since approximately the same time. The church and cemetery were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.
