Our community’s past is filled with interesting people,
many of whom now rest at Gypsum Hill Cemetery. Among
the cemetery’s “residents” are founders of Salina, veterans of
American wars, politicians, journalists, children, ex-slaves, a
murderer and his victims, as well as many ordinary people
with poignant tales. This walk through the cemetery is designed to be a leisurely stroll that takes you to selected gravesites where you will learn the stories of people who helped shape our city and county. The walk is a 1.2-mile loop that starts at the cemetery office. Please remember to respect all gravesites. Start Here.
