Most of the cemeteries around here only allow the plates in the ground with a metal vase attached for fake flowers.<br />LOVE that website! That is cool someone took the time to do the photos.

If you ...Wow! Interesting stuff on the Capones. :)<br /><br />If you really like cemeteries you may want to visit the Bellefontaine and Calvary Cemeteries (they are across the street from each other)in St. Louis. Old old cemeteries with a few celebrities and beautiful headstones.Chickadeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00516832244348723175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502516942818340638.post-1152422059532386092011-09-18T12:49:06.000-05:002011-09-18T12:49:06.000-05:00I like to walk through old cemeteries and read the...I like to walk through old cemeteries and read the tombstones.

Grateful for the link to 'findagrave' - I'm wondering if my Mom's grave will be registered (Australia) ...

They have tours of the underground tunnels and tell the story of his visits. I think one of the hotels was called Capone's Hideout at one time!!<br />Thanks for the interesting post!!Snowflakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02786153495361777452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502516942818340638.post-26279518626464082902011-09-18T01:40:34.507-05:002011-09-18T01:40:34.507-05:00Good post!

I had never heard that he was haunted by a ghost the last years of his life. Makes you wonder what they were talking about in his cell?!<br />Can hardly wait to hear more. Great video, too. :)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502516942818340638.post-16130583554705233482011-09-17T11:21:51.700-05:002011-09-17T11:21:51.700-05:00What an interesting post!
