City of Miami Cemetery by John Gillan
John Gillan is one of my favorite Artists!
This collection of work is one of the most sensitive and revealing records ever assembled of the richly historic architecture and landscapes of Dade County. " This is historic Miami at its best. " Charleton Tebeau.

"This cemetery represents the city's first burial site and contains a Who's Who of early Miamians. Its beauty stems from the fact that Dr. David Fairchild, world-renowned horticulturist, and Alexis Korsdakoff, sexton from 1927-62, planted more than three hundred varieties of plants and trees. If one studies the old City Cemetery and those pioneers buried in it, he/she will gain a deep insight into the early history of the Magic City. The facility is a history book that casts a broad beam over the story of early Miami."
Dr. Paul S. George, Historian
7 September 1993
Some of the early Miamian's buried here are Julia Tuttle, Dr. James M. Jackson, John Seybold, William Burdine and John Peacock.
