The Story

Crest Hill Cemetery occupies a plot near downtown Marietta at the corner of Polk Street and Ridge Avenue, and is frequently mistaken for the larger Mountain View Park Cemetery across the street, which shares the same owner. Burials here began in the 1930s. Smaller and less regularly tended, it holds dozens of unmarked or badly deteriorated graves whose occupants may never be identified.
