Grove Street Cemetery or Grove Street Burial Ground in New Haven, Connecticut, is located adjacent to the Yale University campus. It was organized in 1796 as the New Haven Burying Ground and incorporated in October 1797 to replace the crowded burial ground on the New Haven Green. The first private, nonprofit cemetery in the world, it was one of the earliest burial grounds to have a planned layout, with plots permanently owned by individual families, a structured arrangement of ornamental plantings, and paved and named streets and avenues. This was "a real turning point... a whole redefinition of how people viewed death and dying", according to historian Peter Dobkin Hall, with novel ideas like permanent memorials and the sanctity of the deceased body. In part for this reason, it was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2000. Many notable Yale and New Haven luminaries are buried in the Grove Street Cemetery, including fourteen Yale presidents; nevertheless, it was not restricted to members of the upper class, and was open to all.
New Haven (local /nuː ˈheɪvən/, noo-HAY-vən), in the U.S. state of Connecticut, is the principal municipality in Greater New Haven, which had a total population of 862,477 in 2010. It is located on New Haven Harbor on the northern shore of the Long Island Sound in New Haven County, Connecticut, which in turn comprises the outer limits of the New York metropolitan area. It is the second-largest city in Connecticut (after Bridgeport), with a population of 129,779 people as of the 2010 United States Census. According to a census of 1 July 2012, by the Census Bureau, the city had a population of 130,741.
New Haven was founded in 1638 by English Puritans, and a year later eight streets were laid out in a four-by-four grid, creating what is now commonly known as the "Nine Square Plan", now recognized by the American Institute of Certified Planners as a National Planning Landmark. The central common block is New Haven Green, a 16-acre (6 ha) square, now a National Historic Landmark and the center of Downtown New Haven.
A cemetery or graveyard is a place where the remains of deceased people are buried or otherwise interred. The word cemetery (from Greek κοιμητήριον, "sleeping place") implies that the land is specifically designated as a burial ground. The older term graveyard is often used interchangeably with cemetery, but primarily referred to a burial ground within a churchyard.
The intact or cremated remains of people may be interred in a grave, commonly referred to as burial, or in a tomb, an "above-ground grave" (resembling a sarcophagus), a mausoleum, columbarium, niche, or other edifice. In Western cultures, funeral ceremonies are often observed in cemeteries. These ceremonies or rites of passage differ according to cultural practices and religious beliefs. Modern cemeteries often include crematoria, and some grounds previously used for both, continue as crematoria as a principal use long after the interment areas have been filled.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines a cemetery as a "burial-ground generally; now esp. a large public park or ground laid out expressly for the interment of the dead, and not being the ‘yard’ of any church. (Cemetery c)" and specifies that the term "...originally applied to the Roman underground cemeteries or catacombs " Cemeteries are normally distinct from churchyards, which are typically consecrated according to one denomination and are attached directly to a single place of worship.

Another stop in Connecticut leads us to Grove Street Cemetery, a fairly modern burial plot with an interests and strange tombstone with a large marble ball on top, that (for some unknown reason) has slowly been moving since 1930. I also show some other interesting tombstones. The wind is still there but not much of an issue this time, and there is plenty of humor.
This was a video made for the"Visit CT Project" in my Travel and Tourism class. This is the New Haven City Burial Ground aka Grove Street Cemetery.
New Haven, Ct . Home of Eli Whitney's Grave. Beautiful area and interesting graves.
On first of November, a day celebrated in many cultures as the Day of the Dead two Sierra Leoneans, one real and one adopted visited the grave of six of the original La Amistad captives, who never make it back to Africa. They are buried at the historical Grove Street Cemetery in New Haven. The grave of Roger Sherman Baldwin - the lawyer who won the case is visited as well.
An overview of New Haven's historic Grove Street Cemetery, the nation's oldest organized public burial ground. The cemetery is the final resting place of Eli Whitney, Daniel Webster, Roger Sherman, and other famous people. The cemetery also contains the grave of William Grimes, the first Arican-American slave to write an autobiography of his life and times.
Stepping into the grounds of the Grove Street Cemetery, I was surprised by just how quiet the place was. Not a single chirp or titter of birdsong could be heard coming from the shrubs and trees that grew between the ancient gravestones. It was only when I looked up did I realise why this was so. Perched high up in a twisted, gnarled tree was an adult Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis), a large bird of prey with a particular appetite for pigeons and other smaller birds. From its vantage point it kept a close and watchful eye over the vast expanse that was the cemetery, perhaps waiting for a flock of pigeons to foolishly present themselves as the hawk's next meal.
Laying of wreath at grave of Roger Sherman first Mayor of New Haven: only person to sign all four great state papers of the U.S.: the Continental Association; the Declaration of Independence; the Articles of Confederation, and; the Constitution. Grove Street is the first planned cemetery in the country.
Tweet this video! - http://clicktotweet.com/k_tLz There's something mystical and simultaneously creepy about cemeteries. So many stories have been told about graveyards and all the spook associated with them and these stories prick that nagging curiosity; that certain 'something' about the dead and the afterlife that tickles the imagination of us who are still alive. If you're looking for something spooky (and yes, we know it's not Halloween), then you're in for a treat as we share with you these 25 cemeteries that will scare you out of your skin.

Skull and Bones is an undergraduate senior secret society at Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut. It is the oldest senior class landed society at Yale. The society's alumni organization, the Russell Trust Association, owns the society's real estate and oversees the organization. The society is known informally as "Bones", and members are known as "Bonesmen". History Skull and Bones was founded in 1832 after a dispute between Yale debating societies Linonia, Brothers in Unity, and the Calliopean Society over that season's Phi Beta Kappa awards. It was co-founded by William Huntington Russell and Alphonso Taft as "the Order of the Skull and Bones". The society's assets are managed by the society's alumni organization, the Russell Trust Association, incorporated in 1856 and named afte...
Charles Goodyear (December 18, 1800 – July 1, 1860) was an American self-taught chemist and manufacturing engineer who developed vulcanized rubber, for which he received patent number 3633 from the United States Patent Office on June 15, 1844. Though Goodyear is often credited with the invention of vulcanized rubber, modern evidence has proven that the Mesoamericans used stabilized rubber for balls and other objects as early as 1600 BC.,[4] and Thomas Hancock had a patent pending for a vulcanization process 8 weeks before Goodyear. Goodyear's discovery of the vulcanization process was accidental, after five years of searching for a more stable rubber and stumbling upon the effectiveness of heating after Thomas Hancock. In the year 1852 Goodyear went to Europe, a trip that he had long pl...
