With Historian Michael Barrett

Oakwood Cemetery contains the final resting place of a number of prominent Trojans. Many of the leading industrialist families are here, as is Emma Willard, Amos Eaton of RPI, Russell Sage (who had nothing to do with setting up the college of that name), as well as many merchant families, generals, lawyers, and politicians of note. Come enjoy a leisurely drive-and-walk tour of Troy history as told by burial places in this beautiful rural cemetery.
