Understanding the Sections


The sections are numbered from the original gate: Sections 1–6 run along the east side from south to north, and Sections 7–12 are on the opposite side.

Section 1 — Odd Fellows

Section 1, Lot 1 is comprised of several sections originally bought and merged by the International Order of Odd Fellows, giving it its irregular and unusually large size.

The Four Churches Lots

Four lots in the center of the cemetery were donated to "the four churches" in Fredericksburg at the time the cemetery was established in 1844.

Visiting Tip: An historic cemetery can be dangerous. Do not lean, sit, or climb on grave markers. Grave rubbings are not permitted without permission. Take only photographs, leave only footprints.
