Do you know of a veteran laid to rest in Mendham?

As part of an Eagle Project initiative to map veterans buried in Mendham's Hilltop and St. Joseph's cemeteries, Boy Scouts in Mendham Troop 1 initially identified the resting places of 325 veterans when they canvassed the cemeteries on foot.

However, once we started crowdsourcing information, we subsequently identified nearly 100 additional veterans.

If you would like to confirm that a veteran laid to rest in Mendham is on the list, please provide their

• name
• cemetery name (Hilltop or St. Joseph's in Mendham)
• description of where/how we could find their grave

With this information, we will check to see if we have the veteran included on our map. If not, once the snow makes it possible, we will visit the cemeteries to locate their resting place and confirm that we have found them (or ask for more details if need be).

Even if you prefer to share that information by email (mendhamvets@gmail.com), please comment that you are doing so below. This helps us stay on top of requests and it also keeps the article active so we can reach as many people as possible.

We want to ensure that we have identified as many veterans as we can. Thank you for your help.
