I don't believe in photographing gravestones that belong to people I'm not related to, but I did take a couple photos of MEMORIALS in this cemetery. As stated on the previous post, there are a number of burials of military associated soldiers from multiple conflicts.
Wilmington Cemetery is said to have over 9000 burials but then most must be unmarked graves. This list of CIVIL WAR SOLDIERS is INTERESTING. I wonder if these are persons who died in the Civil War or who were veterans who had served and if they were all local men. I also wonder if they ever lived at the Drum Barracks about a mile away.
I claim copyright on these photos but if you're using them for your personal Genealogy book that you're distributing to your family it's OK to use them i.e. non commercial use.
