Old Settlers' Cemetery (Charlotte, North Carolina)

Old Settlers' Cemetery is a city owned cemetery located at 200 West 5th Street, right in the middle of Charlotte, North Carolina. It was the first municipal burial ground in Charlotte and contains the graves of many early settlers, with gravesites dating from 1776 through 1884.〔(Charlotte Mecklenburg Library, The Charlotte—Mecklenburg Story: Charlotte and Mecklenburg Cemeteries )〕 Prominent people buried in Old Settlers' include Nathaniel Alexander, Greene Washington Caldwell, Revolutionary War hero Major General George Graham,〔(Find a Grave: Old Settlers Cemetery )〕 and Thomas Polk,〔(Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation: Thomas Polk )〕 Charlotte founding father and great-uncle of United States President James K. Polk. Also contained in the cemetery is an obelisk honoring North Carolina planter and politician William Davidson.〔(Charlotte-Mecklenburg Historic Landmarks Commission: Old Settlers' Cemetery )〕
Old Settlers' was Charlotte's only city operated cemetery until 1854, when—due to space limitations—it was closed and the City opened Elmwood/Pinewood Cemetery.〔(Charlotte Government, City Cemetery Operations & Maintenance )〕
Old Settlers' Cemetery recently had a $500,000 restoration.〔''The Old Settlers Cemetery'', Charlotte Observer: Sunday, November 22, 1998〕 With its majestic old oaks and brick lined pathways, it is more park than cemetery and is a centerpiece of Charlotte's Fourth Ward Historic District.〔
