Arriving as a Fine Arts student of The Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD), he became a regular at The Georgia Historical Society and, as a conversationalist, earned the graces of many locals — from the richest to the poorest — and absorbed their stories and those of their friends and family. In 2010, Shannon sold his tour company and opened Shannon Scott Tours & Events, placing major emphasis on cemeteries and unique cultural events related to them. 

Megan Morgan

Secretary/Treasurer

Megan developed a deep love and appreciation for cemeteries during her childhood, where she spent many hours wandering amongst the tombstones of her family’s cemetery in the town of Is-en-Bassigny, France. She also began drawing and painting at an early age, as her family sometimes jokes “she drew before she walked”. The winner of several county and state level art awards, including first place in The North Carolina Farm City Art Show, Megan was accepted into North Carolina State University’s School of Graphic Design in 2005. Though her career ultimately took a turn towards veterinary science and education, art is still a priority in her life, and you can find her working on a number of graphic design projects.
