I was reading up on the cemetery and found out that silent film star Mary Louise Brooks (Pandora's Box, Diary Of A Lost Girl) and had to go find it. It took a bit but I was lucky to stumble the basic stone but it was sort of exciting. A lot of famous people are buried here including Walter E Wegman (of grocery store fame), Assunta Cantisano (Ragu spaghetti sauce), Colonel Patrick Henry O’Rorke (led heroic charge over Little Round Top at the Battle of Gettysburg), baseball player Charles “Red” Dooin, Henry E. Gillette (60th Mayor of Rochester), detective writer Edward Hoch, Francis Tumblety (Jack the Ripper suspect) and many more politicians, artists, sports figures, business men, military men, religious leaders, etc. The place is beautiful to drive around with many old monuments and grave stones, beautiful chapels/mausoleums, ponds, trees and wildlife. We saw about 6 deer wandering through the cemetery and just loved the natural beauty in parts the expansive grounds. While Mt Hope gets most of the attention, this place might surpass in the overall scope of the grounds and people buried here.
