Old North: Cemetery in Distress
Old North Cemetery, founded in 1807 is the third of Hartford’s early burial grounds; it is the resting place for some of Connecticut’s early politicians, Revolutionary War and Civil War veterans, African-Americans and home to Hartford’s first Catholic burial ground.

Some people resting in this cemetery are: Frederick Law Olmsted, The Reverend Horace Bushnell, Daniel Watkinson, Daniel Wadsworth, John Colt, Mason Fitch and Alice Cogswell, William Wolcott Ellsworth and Samuel Bowles. In addition to the above mentioned, there are veterans from every war from the Revolutionary War to World War II—with many black Civil War soldiers and veterans (most from the 29th Connecticut Volunteers).
