    I know you posted this nearly 10 years ago, but there is a channel called Hollywood Graveyard that visits cemeteries and gives fascinating little bios on everyone buried in the cemetery they're visiting. You clearly have a fantastic knowledge of this topic, and the show is preparing to visit New York - venturing out of California for the first time. Perhaps you guys could collaborate in some way!

    Lillian Gish is still remembered to this day in her hometown of Massillon, Ohio - a short road that connects Ohio Route 172 to Ohio Route 21 is named Lillian Gish Boulevard. There is also a small stone block structure (I don't know what it actually is) that has two paintings of her on it - one side features a scene from 'The Scarlet Letter', and the other has her portrait with her birth (1893) and death (1993) years next to it. She may be gone, but Massillon certainly hasn't forgotten her!

      Most (over 75%) of all silent films made are lost forever and of those that exist, will also be lost if not properly stored and handled. That said, there are a few hundred silent films that have been released on DVD and Blu-Ray, so I guess these will be available to future generations for viewing, albeit a very selective group they will be.

They lived for a time on Arch St. There is a hotel in Philadelphia called the Hyatt that had " The Ethel Barrymore" room. Also John was buried in Mount Vernon Cemetery initially, but some years later his remains were moved to a California cemetery. I'm sure everyone knows that he is actress Drew Barrymore's grandfather.

    Garbo is buried in Sweden in the same cemetery as her mother, father and sister. It is called Skogskyrkogarden and it is about 15 minutes outside of Stockholm. (Not Woodlawn.) She was cremated years before her ashes were finally buried, so says her family who wanted to protect her remains from pillagers. (Charlie Chaplin's body was dug up and held for ransom in Switzerland, so their thinking wasn't that outlandish.) She has a beautiful marker, simple and elegant with her signature.

    Thank you for a wonderful tribute. I think you included every major star and quite a few that I had not heard of before. There were some lesser known stars that didn't get included, but it would have been near impossible to include all of them. I'd be curious to know who the last four or five silent screen actors were to leave this world (not counting bit players or babies or little kids who appeared in films). I'm guessing that Anita Page was the last one. May God grant all of them eternal peace and rest.
    As a side note, my only criticism is that I kept having to hit the pause button in order to read the info presented for each star.

      rockisheaven I had been watching more silent films and Golden age Hollywood films recently too. I have always been fascinated with them and the actors/actresses and the history behind it. Such a different time period. Stars like Charlie Chaplin, Lon Chaney, Gloria Stuart and Fay Wray only come once a lifetime and it does sadden me to be aware of that. How would a simple conversation be with them...to me, it also serves as a reminder to try and not take people and life for granted. Especially our loved ones. I'm 23 and I wish fellow millennials would be as open and engaging to appreciating such films.
