The Lehighton Cemetery, along Fourth Street, is hosting a living history walking tour from 2 to 6 p.m. Saturday in conjunction with the Lehighton Fall Fest.

A follow-up to a highly successful event as part of the Lehighton Borough Sesquicentennial Celebration last year, the tour is not a focused on ghost tales, but rather reflects on the lives of notable individuals buried at the site.Among those featured on the tour are Jack and Ruth Anthony, the Obert Family, Guy and Marian Morthimer, William Swartz and Leo Francis (Frank) Clark.Jack Anthony was an Army veteran of World War II, attaining the rank of sergeant and serving in Europe. He received a Purple Heart medal and a European/African/Middle Eastern Service medal with four Bronze Stars and a bronze arrowhead. He was a member of American Legion Post 314 and president of its World War II Last Man's Club. He was also a member of Lehigh Fire Company No. 1 and a former president of Orioles Nest 183.Guy Morthimer, who took over the Lehighton Evening Leader in 1918 after his father George passed away, will also be discussed.Two more stops on the tour will highlight the lives of Leo Francis (Frank) Clark and William Swartz, the man Clark killed.Clark had lost his job L.V. Yards in April 1917 and had purchased a revolver to take revenge on the co-worker who had turned him in to his supervisor for drinking on the job. When Swartz, then Lehighton's chief of police, arrived to question the man, he was shot. The chief died four days later, leaving behind his wife and eight children. He was 48 years old.The tour will also focus on the Obert family.A 35-foot flagpole and American flag in honor of fallen veterans and all who served the United States in military and support efforts will be dedicated as part of the event.Donations will be accepted to go to charities.
