1.	KREBS CEMETERY, Old Spanish Fort, Pascagoula. The Old Spanish Fort has the distinction of being the oldest building in the Mississippi Valley. It was erected about 1718 on land granted to the Duchess de Chaumont, who was a favorite in the Court of Louis XIV and the sister of French Admiral, Joseph Simon de la Pointe. Marie Josephine, daughter of de la Pointe, married Baron Hugo von Krebs in the early 1730’s. Baron von Krebs was a planter, surgeon, and the inventor of a cotton gin many years prior to Eli Whitney's. Kreb’s Cemetery, which occupies a corner of the grounds at the Old Spanish Fort is the burying place for many of the descendants of Baron von Krebs; the oldest graves in the cemetery are those of his children. Most of the inscriptions on the early graves are in French and give evidence of the high infant mortality rate during the Colonial period. The cemetery is shaded by massive live oaks and is filled with lovely azaleas. Its locations on the windswept banks of Krebs Lake and its proximity to the Old Spanish Fort with it’s memorabilia filled museum make this historic spot an important stop for pilgrimage visitors. Members of the Pilgrimage Garden Club'will serve as hostesses. Refreshments will be served.
