Were you ever curious about who was buried where in a cemetery jam-packed with old gravestones? In this online talk, Jim Lee and Alexis Alemy, archaeologists at Hunter research, will demonstrate cutting edge methods to document and map historic burial grounds, drawing on studies of abandoned Methodist cemeteries across New Jersey. They'll explore the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs or drones) and geographic information system (GIS) technology to organize and process cemetery data into an interactive map. Some of these methods have been applied to document graves in the well-maintained Pennington African Cemetery.

Registration required. Cosponsored by the Hopewell Valley Historical Society and The Hopewell Museum with the Pennington Public Library. Registration at the following link: Who Lies Where?
