Cemeteries are an important resource in heritage education for helping people to develop a stronger sense of both history and place. Heritage education, an outgrowth of the historic preservation movement of the 1960s, relies on such physical relics as gravestones, documents, photographs, and other artifacts to encourage a greater understanding of the past.
