Laurel Hill Cemetery

Laurel Hill Cemetery, established in 1821, contains 112 monuments, ranging from un-dressed fieldstone markers for paupers graves to more elaborate obelisks and carved markers.

In 1963, Gifford Bryce Pinchot donated the Grey Towers estate – including the Laurel Hill Cemetery – to the USDA Forest Service, the agency founded by conservationist and former Pennsylvania Governor Gifford Pinchot. Grey Towers now serves as a center for conservation leadership and education and a model for historic pres-ervation and stewardship. For those early residents who lived, died, and now have been laid to rest in Milford, Grey Towers serves as a living legacy.
