Talking Spirits XXIII Cemetery Tour 2021: Wisconsin Women at War

Held each fall at the beautiful Forest Hill Cemetery in Madison, this award-winning living history program illuminates the lives of prominent and lesser known-figures in Wisconsin history. This year, you will learn about four Wisconsin women, Eulalie C. Beffel, Jesse Smith, Elizabeth Park, and Elizabeth Roach. Local actresses donning period dress will draw you into their stories of service and sacrifice.  During the tour, guides will walk and entertain you with little-known stories of the people who rest in the cemetery and their contributions to the great state of Wisconsin. Tour fee is $10 per person. You must register in advance.
