Why veterans cemeteries choose CemeteryBase
Veteran status on every record
Flag each interment as a veteran and capture branch of service, marker type, and flag-holder details in record notes. Filter and export by veteran status for Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and ceremony planning.
Families locate veterans online
Out-of-state families researching a veteran ancestor Google the name and land on your public grave search page — section, plot, and exact map location, no phone call required.
Map sections and rows accurately
Draw veteran sections, rows, and markers on an interactive map. If you have a GPS survey, import it as CSV with lat/lng, KML, KMZ, or GeoJSON. No GIS license needed to view or update.
Preserve fragile historic records
Older veteran sections often live in paper logbooks at risk of loss. Digitize them once, back them up automatically, and keep a century of service history searchable forever.
