Product Description
This angel was found on an above ground tomb located in Metairie Cemetery.
Metairie Cemetery was established in 1872 on land that was once a racetrack. Oddly enough, a portion of the property was used to bury the thousands of yellow fever victims that died in the epidemic of 1853. Louisiana legends who are buried here range from governors to Storyville madams.
