The first 80% of the cemetery is comprised of mostly upright grave markers. The back of the cemetery contains flat monuments like a memorial park.

If you need assistance here you can call Oakwood Cemetery and they will meet you at West Concord Cemetery office across the street from the entrance.

Elmwood is a well-maintained cemetery. Seems like it's burial site for some well-to do Charlotteans. I saw so many names I'm familiar with. Including "Dunhill", which is the historic hotel I used to work for Uptown. Elmwood offered me it's own history lesson while also humbling me. It made me feel so grateful to be alive and able to admire this place from the land of the living, with all respect. If you ever need to get some mental or emotional clarity, take a walk in a cemetery. This was enjoyable.

I have since removed those photos except one of the area where my loved ones are buried to show a before and after photo. New ownership has stepped up to the plate and started to fix the things that need fixing. I think all the graves I took photos of last year have been fixed. Last couple of years I would not have recommended this place but I do see effort now that they are trying to live by their caring motto.

This time it was my father in law, who passed away on 8/14/2023. Because of Mike's attention to detail and the willingness to provide information many funeral services do not, we were able to give my father in law a send off we may not have been able to with anyone else. From the moment we notified him of his passing to his thorough arrangements and, once again, our ability to reach him at all times during the process makes this a business that we want to promote. We would also like to thank Sonya at the VA National Cemetery in Salisbury, NC, the honor guards from Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in Goldsboro, NC and the Davidson County unit who provided the gun and TAPS salute for their participation in his ceremony and for Mike himself, who provided a beautiful prayer at the end of the service...that's the total attention to details that we appreciated and is the reason we returned to Good Samaritan again. I cannot recommend him enough

Located in Salisbury adjacent to the Rowan County Courthouse and a number of churches, this marker…read morepoints out the history of the cemetery that is just next to it. Marker L-71 reads, "Cornwallis' men buried here in 1781. Granted to city in 1770 by British government. Grave of Gov. John W. Ellis is here." The online essay has more information. "The land for what has come to be known as the Old English Cemetery in Salisbury was originally set aside for the town by the colonial assembly in 1770. The title for the "Burying Ground" was assigned to the town commissioners, one of whom was Thomas Frohock. Frohock donated the plot to the city upon his death in 1794. Over the ensuing decades the cemetery became the final resting place for generations of the leaders of Rowan County. Best known of those individuals was Gov. John Ellis (1820-1861), who died seven months into his term as the state's chief executive. The cemetery includes a number of unmarked British graves, those likely being the remains of soldiers in Cornwallis's army who died while in jail in Salisbury. Cornwallis's camp was situated on the property where the Rowan Public Library now stands and his soldiers used the old town well at the back of the library property. "The oldest grave in the cemetery is that of Col. Daniel Little who died on December 10, 1775. The cemetery was restored by the Pine Tree Garden Club of Salisbury in the 1960s. The Freedmen's Cemetery is separated from the Old English Cemetery by a stone wall. In recent years efforts have been mounted to memorialize those buried in the Freedmen's Cemetery and to repair the monuments in the Old English Cemetery."
