Good day to you all!
As a transplant from the vineyard to here i am interested to know if anyone has stumbled across any smallpox burial sites? I have found a few on the Island and i know that due to the horrific infectiousness of this disease the dead were often buried in out of the way areas not typically frequented by any of the living. Just wondering as i have found that where you would think these would be sites of great mourning and sadness they are in fact usually quite peacfull and a lovely placre to spend some time!
Cheers
