About the Tour: Established in 1826, Erie Street Cemetery serves as the burial ground for many of Cleveland’s pioneer families and military veterans of the Revolutionary War and Civil War. The tour will begin inside the East 9th Street entrance with a conversation about the lives of Cleveland’s first permanent settlers. Among the tour’s highlights will be the stories of 19th century civil rights pioneer John Malvin, Native American Joc-O-Sot also known as Walking Bear and Rebecca Carter who along with husband Lorenzo, were the first permanent, white settlers in Cleveland.
