Reader Behold as You Pass By

Welcome! This history blog mostly provides visitors like you with postings of gravestone epitaphs in Greenwich, Connecticut USA -and the stories behind those who rest eternally in the burying grounds. I decided long ago to someday publish selected epitaphs from the town's cemeteries. You'll also find stories and information about the cemeteries and burying grounds of the town -including efforts at preserving them.

About Me

Jeffrey Bingham Mead
Hi everyone! I'm Jeffrey Bingham Mead. The world is my pearl, so to speak. My ancestral home is Greenwich, Connecticut USA. I also maintain a home in Hawaii, using this location to travel and explore Asia. My background is in education, and I'm certainly a lifelong learner. I'm an historian, business owner, writer in a world in which things are changing. People and cultures are coming together as never before. Traveling in this era surely rocks my world, and so I hope my stories and narratives do the same for you, too!
