...nearby West Virginia National Cemetery when I decided to come here for a quick look. At first I thought it was a bit odd that two national cemeteries would be located so close to each other, but I learned that this place is a historic cemetery from past wars while the other one is newer and still open for veterans when they pass. This is a beautiful historic veterans cemetery that is well maintained. The stones are older than you would find at a more modern cemetery, nonetheless it is a really awesome and serene place to visit. I believe most of the soldiers here date from the Civil War era. Here is something that made me happy to see: two gravestones with the Star of David on them for a WWI veteran and his wife. When I visit national or veterans cemeteries, I try to take notice of the religious symbols on the graves especially those other than the cross, which of course are the vast majority. While I certainly didn't cover the whole cemetery, I didn't see one other stone with something other than a cross on it at the newer larger West Virginia National Cemetery. But here in this older, more established place is one. I love to see expressions of diversity especially in the times we are living through right now.

It is right by the Old Stone Church. Lewisburg has a very walkable downtown. You can also see Carnegie Hall and other historic buildings.

Be respectful of this cemetery and the history within the confines. Remember this is a final resting place for those before us. Not a playground fro children.
