Meeting Room

Cemetery preservationist Kurt Jordan will discuss his ongoing cemetery preservation project near Amazonia and show the proper methods of cleaning headstones.

Kurt Jordan has been working on preservation at the Greenwick Cemetery near Amazonia for several years. He became interested in the cemetery after learning of his relatives buried there. After repairing the marker of his great-great-great grandfather, he became interested in cemetery and headstone preservation. He has had training on repairing and resetting headstones with Atlas Preservation and will be offering in-the-field training for those interested at a later date at the Savannah City Cemetery.

About the branch

Savannah Branch got a new look both inside and out in 2017. Small town hospitality abounds at this location, with a family-friendly layout and abundant seating. This location also processes passport applications, the only location in Andrew County to do so.
