Comstock Cemetary

As morbid as this sounds...the Comstock Cemetery in Virginia City was VERY interesting! It was founded in the early 1900's and many of the tombstones were weathered away and couldn't be read because they were so old! Being huge pioneer buffs, Maggie and I were able to piece together realistic explanations for shortened lives, lonely graves, families buried together, infant graves, etc. The cemetery has seen better days but we could still envision how grand it must have once been.
