Factual error: The area you label as "North Mount Moriah" is an incorrect designation. That is the "Yeadon side" of Mount Moriah. Formerly farmland owned by the Palmer Family, it contains that family's burial area too. The Philadelphia and Yeadon parts used to be one continuous track until the 1910s, when it was bisected by Cobbs Creek Parkway. "North Mount Moriah" was a marketing term for what is now Graceland Cemetery, also in Yeadon. There are advertisements from "Mount Moriah" decrying the name "North Mount Moriah" as a play to confuse people. Nice photography, thank you for suggesting people support the effort!
I just watched a show on investigation discovery it talked about some criminals that got caught dumping murder victims in an old crypt they forced open in this cemetery it is insane I think the show was called how not to get rid of a body
Im from Philadelphia pa lived in the suburbs. im wondering if this is the large cemetery you can see from the expressway.if it is i remember looking at it on the way home❤❤
My daughter's father is buried here he died on January 14, 2006. I was pregnant with our daughter my only child her was murdered from gun violence . RIP my love always & forever in my heart !
God bless all who are trying to help this situation and thank you to the RR guys for the public exposure to it!
I grew up not far from here and my grandmother is buried there. It was beautiful back in the day. The river is pronounced Sku-kill. Cheers.
Rest in peace .
I came to the comments to see if anyone would give the correct pronunciation. 😉😊
I live an hour from Philadelphia yet never knew about this place. Fascinating video!
Very interesting video. Thanks for raising awareness and for trying to help them raise money. It's a travesty that this place is in such disrepair.
That's crazy. I know there's another cemetery in PA that's abandoned also. The mausoleum has been condemned. It's sad.

A time when people bestowed honor to their loved ones.

There was a time when people were just dying to get in there !
I hate to see these old cemeteries abandoned. It just doesn’t seem right. So sad to see.
School kul river. Pronunciation correct
Omg
Don't cemetaries (their owners or trustees) have feduciary responsibilities to ensure that their finances and upkeep are properly maintained?
