St Anne’s Cemetery Tour

St. Anne’s has almost always had a cemetery since its establishment in 1692. Under the planning of Governor Francis Nicholson, the church is placed on the second highest piece of land in Annapolis and has been the site of 3 churches with burial grounds.

The land on which the St. Anne’s Cemetery is located was donated by Elizabeth Bordley in 1790. Many of the occupants and associates of Hammond-Harwood House were parishioners of St. Anne’s Church and are buried at the cemetery. Members of the Pinkney, Loockerman, and Harwood families are interred, as well as artisans and craftsmen associated with the Hammond-Harwood House.This tour will focus on these families and the recognition of St. Anne’s Cemetery as a commemoration for art and historical association.

Participants will also receive a half-price admission to the Hammond-Harwood House.

Tour begins at the cemetery entrance, between Northwest Street and College Creek.

20% of the proceeds are donated to the preservation of St. Anne’s Cemetery
