Out of the Closet & Into the Crypt: LGBTQIA+ Tour

Most Laurel Hill East residents lived at a time when it was illegal and/or unsafe to be out as an LGBTQ+ person. Sexual orientation was not mentioned in obituaries, or in cemetery records. Nonetheless, Laurel Hill East has always had queer residents and we will meet some of them on this tour from lesbian artists and a cross-dressing cleric to 21st-century gay activists.
