Oakland Cemetery: In 1850 the City of Atlanta established a public cemetery on this ridge overlooking downtown. Originally known as Atlanta City Cemetery, the name Oakland was adopted in 1872 because of its many oaks. It was the principal burial ground for Atlanta residents, travelers and paupers. The cemetery contains separate African American and Jewish burial sections as well as distinct areas for Confederate and Union soldiers. The 48-acre cemetery is the burial site of several Georgia governors, more than twenty Atlanta mayors, and five Confederate generals, Author Margaret Mitchell and golfer Bobby Jones are also buried there.
