Greenwood Cemetery
When we were in the Brooklyn Historical Society Building, my group and I had gotten to learn the rules and regulations from when Greenwood first opened to the rules and regulations now. The rules are pretty much the same with changes coming due to our technological advancements. I also had gotten glimpses of the maps that have not changed since the initial opening of the cemetery.
