Jeannie R. Regan-Dinius, Director of Special Initiatives for the Department of Natural Resources,’ Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology, will discuss the state of cemeteries in Indiana, the presumed meanings of markings, how pop culture affects stones, and what you need to look at when you walk through a cemetery. Cemeteries tell us much about who came before us.  The size, shape and documentation vary from religious groups, time period, and location.  But, all are important outdoor museums.  The symbols and markings that individuals put on their stones reveal much about the individual and family.
