GenTales Video - A Visit to Oakwood Cemetery

Warsaw, Kosciusko County, Indiana

This was filmed November 15. The cemetery database I mention is available via Beacon.

Oakwood Cemetery is also on FindAGrave here.

A note on cemetery etiquette:

You may hear me mention at one point in the video, but just to be clear, there’s an etiquette to walking around a cemetery. Due to how I held my phone while recording, it looks like I went closer to the front of the stones than I actually did. I was taught to be respectful of the plots and to walk behind the stones and between them, carefully avoiding walking in front where the person is buried. I also ensured noone else was around before recording so I wouldn’t disturb anyone else’s visit or peace.

If you visit a cemetery, please be respectful. It’s not just for those who are buried there, but for their loved ones who visit them as well.
