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.

In 1934 the city acquired Cedarwood and five adjoining cemeteries--Ebenezer, Methodist, Sons and Daughters of Ham, Sycamore, Union Mechanics--and combined them under the name Barton Heights Cemeteries. Some of these cemeteries date back to the Civil War. Located at 1600 Lamb Ave in Richmond, VA, Barton Heights is on the National Register of Historic Places. This cemetery is fenced and not readily accessible.

The six cemeteries and their dates of establishment. Phoenix 1815 (later renamed Cedarwood), Union 1846 (the name Mechanics was added after emancipation), Methodist 1855, Ebenezer 1858, Sons and Daughters of Ham 1867, Sycamore circa 1881.
