Join us as we honor the veterans buried at the Old City Cemetery. Over 450 identified veterans representing wars from the Indian Wars, World War 1 & 2, and the Persian Gulf War are buried in the Old Cemetery. Those buried represent Union and Confederate Soldiers and several from the Mexican Revolution of the early 1900s. A U.S flag will be placed on each identified veterans’ grave. Volunteers to place flags are welcome.
