Book Synopsis A Graveyard Preservation Primer by : Lynette Strangstad
Download or read book A Graveyard Preservation Primer written by Lynette Strangstad and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013-08-28 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Graveyard Preservation Primer has proven itself to be a time-tested resource for those who are seeking information regarding the protection and preservation of historic graveyards. It was first written to help stewards of early burial grounds responsibly and effectively preserve their graveyards. Much information found in the first edition of the book remains valid today. Still, much has changed in the twenty-five years since its first publication, and the new edition reflects these changes. Attitudes and the understanding of historic graveyards as an important cultural resource have grown and developed over the years. Likewise, changes in treatments have also taken place. Perhaps the most dramatic change in burial ground preservation is in the world of technology. Changes in computers and the way we use them have also changed preservation practices in historic graveyards. Discussion of technological changes in the new edition includes those in mapping, surveying, photography, archaeology, and other areas of evaluation and planning. Consideration is given, too, to maintenance and conservation treatments, including both traditional and newer treatments for stone, concrete, and metals. Metals were not discussed in the earlier editions, and protection and preservation of the landscape as it relates to graveyards is an expanded focus of this book. The historic preservation of cemeteries and burial grounds is an aspect within the discipline of historic preservation that is unknown to many. Those whose responsibility is the care of these historic sites may be unfamiliar with appropriate approaches to such areas as documentation, planning, maintenance, and conservation. Unwitting personnel can do irreparable harm to these important cultural resources. The Primer is an effort to protect historic cultural resources by breaching the gap between maintenance staff, cemetery boards, friends’ groups, and graveyard preservation professionals by offering readily available, responsible information regarding graveyard protection and preservation. It is also designed to assist those who would undertake a preservation project in the reclaiming of a neglected or abandoned historic cemetery. The book is generously illustrated with diagrams and photos illustrating procedures and gravemarker and graveyard forms, styles, and materials. The appendix section is completely updated and expanded, offering a worthwhile resource in itself.

Book excerpt: The Naval Hospital Cemetery in Brooklyn was established in 1831 and was closed in 1910. In 1926, the Navy disinterred burials from the cemetery and subsequently reinterred them at Cypress Hills National Cemetery, also in Brooklyn. This research effort was conducted by the Navy to address the issue of military burials that are not documented as having been removed from the Naval Hospital Cemetery during the 1926 disinterment action. During the Navy's research on the cemetery, discrepancies regarding the number of burials and disinterments at the cemetery, as well as missing, incomplete, and contradictory information, were frequently encountered. These research obstacles have made it impossible for the Navy to provide definitive answers to the stated research goals. However, despite these challenges, a great deal of information was collected, including data on those Sailors, Marines, and members of their families who may not have been disinterred.

Book excerpt: "Randolph Cemetery is a historic African-American burial ground in Columbia, South Carolina. Established in 1872, the cemetery is named for Benjamin Franklin Randolph, a Reconstruction-era African-American senator who was assassinated in 1868. Randolph Cemetery was the most prominent African-American cemetery in Columbia from the late nineteenth century throughout much of the twentieth century, and it is the final resting place of many of Columbia's most notable African-American figures and families. In recognition of its significance to African-American history and culture, Randolph Cemetery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995. This approximately four-acre property is located adjacent to Elmwood Cemetery in the northwest corner of Columbia, South Carolina. Since 1973, the cemetery has been administered by the Committee for the Restoration and Beautification of Randolph Cemetery (CRBRC), which gained trustee administration of the cemetery in 1984. The CRBRC has been supported in their efforts through partnerships with local nonprofit organizations, including the Downtown Columbia Cemetery Task Force (DCCTF) and the Historic Columbia Foundation (HCF). In its efforts to assist the Committee for the Restoration and Beautification of Randolph Cemetery, the DCTFF, a group of non-profit organizations working to preserve cemeteries in the city center, has received grant support from the State of South Carolina and the South Carolina Department of Archives and History, which has funded a project to map and prepare a database of the burials and cemetery features within Randolph Cemetery. This grant was administered by the HCF. This report provides the results of this mapping and database project as well as recommendations for the future management and restoration of Randolph Cemetery."--Page iii.

The resources that are present within a cemetery are assets to be valued by the community, as they provide a direct link to Australia's past. This project has reseached the application of geographic information system technology to the management of data such as that contained within the Beenleigh Cemetery. This project has found that the application of this technology to this data type is possible, and in fact could be easily attached to the current system employed by the local authority to manage data contained within in the cemetery.
