A visit to Málaga's English Cemetery.

Last week my class and I went to the English Cemetery in the center of Málaga.
It was founded by William Mark. It's a cemetery where so many peolpe are buried. These people were English, Spanish, Italian, French and German.
This cemetery is open from Tuesday to Saturday, 10.30-14.00 and Sunday 10.30-13.00.
It's maintained financially by donations. At the entrance, there is an anglican church called St. George.
Edward J. Norton was a general consul of USA buried in this cemetery.
In 1831, Robert Boyd was executed at Playa de San Andrés for fighting for liberal. 
Gerald Brenan was a famous amigo de España writer buried in this cemetery. He was born in Malta and he died in Alhaurin el Grande. His wife was Gamel Woolsey Brenan.
There is also a Canadian married couple burried together, they are Ethel Mobel and George Gordon.
Thomas William Jacques was an English master painter buried in this cemetery too. He lived in the 20 century.
On the graves, there are a lot of plants, like asparagus.
