Grave of Hank & Audrey Williams,Oakwood Annex,Montgomery,Alabama,Carol Highsmith

Title: Grave of Hank and Audrey Williams, Oakwood Annex, Montgomery, Alabama
Creator(s): Highsmith, Carol M., 1946-, photographer
Date Created/Published: 2010.
Notes:
Hank Williams isn't buried in Oakwood Cemetery in Montgomery, Alabama, as is commonly reported. Instead, he's buried in the Oakwood Annex, a cemetery that, unlike the city-owned Oakwood, was in private hands until the owner died and the state was forced to take it over in April 2004. More than half a century after his death, Hank Williams's grave is still perhaps one of the most visited burial site in Alabama. A steady stream of fans and tourists stop by the gravesite where Williams is buried next to his wife, Audrey. Ceremonies are held there twice a year: on the Jan. 1 anniversary of his death, and on his birthday on Sept. 17. Fans, including large numbers of British and Japanese tourists, stop by year round.
