Salem, Massachusetts


The Burying Point is the oldest burying ground in the city of Salem. Buried there is Justice John Hathorne, an ancestor of Nathaniel Hawthorne and one of the judges in the Witchcraft Court. From the cemetery, you can wander into the area designated as the Witch Trials Memorial and reflect on the people from Salem's past remembered here.
