Join Bill Warwick on a walk through time on nearly 200 rolling acres of secluded, and largely unknown Victorian era rustic green space situated in South West Philadelphia and Yeadon Delaware County. Chartered in 1855 and the final resting place for an estimated two hundred thousand persons, we will walk and discuss the history of the cemetery through time and visit notable locations of the property. As a level 1 arboretum, Mount Moriah is sought out by historians, photographers, bird watchers, ghost hunters, artists, and people simply looking to escape the urban core.
Bill Warwick is a Delaware County native who began volunteering at Mount Moriah Cemetery in March of 2012 at the first Park Day event. A yar later, he was elected to the Board of Directors of the Friends of Mount Moriah Cemetery, and soon after elected as Vice President of the Board. Today Bill still serves on the Board, and for his day job, he is the Principal at Barton Partners, architect planners in Norristown, PA, where he has been for 30 years of his career.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to support the work of Friends of Mount Moriah Cemetery.
