Edgar Allan Poe Rests Here

A recent trip to Baltimore for work did not involve much time to take a look around.  Most of the time was in meetings or work related social events.  However, I did need to go to the post office at one point to mail something out.  As I walked up the street, I passed a little church that seemed to have some signage.  I didn’t immediately pay attention but, when I was walking back, I saw that the graveyard included the last resting place of Edgar Allan Poe.  The churchyard is not large and it is tucked in amongst a lot more modern buildings but Poe is a local favorite and his house is apparently nearby.  This is where he is now, though.
