About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The post hospital was a substantial building of dressed sandstone south of the east end of the parade ground. It had a central, two-story administration building and two wings containing wards, each furnished with 20 single beds. The frame building identified as the "dead-house" was located within the fenced yard behind the hospital. The cemetery was reported as being about ¼ mile southeast of the post. By 1870 it contained 183 graves, mostly cholera victims from the 1867 epidemic." Excerpt from article by Marsha K. King which appeared in the March-April 1996 issue of the KAA Newsletter, Vol. 8, No. 2, posted on the Kansas State Historical Society website.
