A “receiving vault” is a structure designed to hold the bodies of the deceased during the winter months when the ground was too frozen to dig graves, but they are sometimes used to store a body that is to be transported elsewhere, or a family mausoleum is to be constructed. With the charter of Riverview Cemetery Corporation in 1858, the company began construction of a receiving vault into the hillside along what is today Ravine Avenue. It was completed the following year. Built of stone and brick, it has four arched-ceiling vaults, two on either side, each of which originally had wooden shelves capable of storing three caskets, and above the iron door is found “Receiving Vault 1859.” The receiving vault found use during the blizzards of both
About 18 miles North East of Manhattan there isn’t much around but small hills covered in crop fields and the occasional farmstead. If you drive just a little ways up King Road, just off highway 13 you will find a cemetery with a sign above two wire gates that says King’s Cemetery. There are three other names listed below King’s Cemetery, other names the grounds have been know as. One of these names is Adam’s Peak. This is rather strange considering the cemetery is not on a peak, nor is there a single stone bearing the name Adam. Upon further investigation you will find Adam’s Peak was, during the 1870’s and 80’s, a town and community.
The neighborhood seemed to be a nice area from how it looks now. Katrina had a very long walk that night to reach her destination. Unfortunately she would never make it back to her house the evening of Valentine’s Day. Instead she was brutally murdered and left to die in a field behind a bowling alley where now lies the Home Depot in Sayerville. Her body was found by people who were riding atv’s behind the bowling alley in a wooded area. Her skull was fractured as she suffered blunt force trauma which induced her death. The Home Depot was sincere enough to leave a space where a memorial lies for Katrina where her body was found. The memorial is a nice area where an engraved stone has Katrina’s information and the usual information a tombstone would read.

On January 3, 2008, the United States Court of Appeals for
Muddy Creek Cemetery perfectly matches the small-town aesthetic prevalent throughout Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania. Secluded by woods and off a minuscule dirt road, it is extremely easy to miss the final resting place of the town’s current and former inhabitants. Split into two parts, the lower half is further divided into a modern section that is still in use and a much older segment consisting of graves from various decades, many dating back to the 1800s. Up a trail that is slowly being invaded with poison ivy, the upper half of the cemetery can be found. Originally donated for the burial of civil war soldiers, the clearing once held a church that burned down long ago and many internments that have been vandalized and are mostly unmarked. Apart
As the Director of LINC, I led the team that verified the accuracy of burial and headstone placement through inspection for each gravesite using the cemetery layout maps, historical burial records, and printout from the Burial Operations Support System (BOSS). In doing so guided my senior staff through conducting a grave-by-grave, 100% assessment of the entire cemetery. My challenge was to coordinate and record the correction of these sensitive discrepancies. The corrective measures required family notification, the disinterment, and re-interment of remains with burials dating back over 40 years for some. I worked to prevent a media incident that would cause widespread speculation and further damage the VA in the public forum.
There are beauties unknown deep in the ground of Concordia. Stories that have been altered over the course of time and history that has tailgated behind these tombstones of deceased bodies. Gunfighters who thought they would rule the world were slain by the scythe of death. They were once owners of land, beholders of beauty, famous gun ringers, loving family members, and burdened veterans of war. Concordia Cemetery, the land that once gave birth to crops now lays burdened with the segregation of death, where even then people were all divided by their race, credentials, ethnicity and even gender. Gunfighters were caged underneath their tombstones where people were sure that they wouldn’t rise again.
With the graveyards filled to capacity, some resorted to throwing their dead into the dark waters of the Rhone. Eventually, mass graves were dug and provided a place to dump the corpses. In London, such burial pits sometimes proved inadequate to receive the dead, with bodies overflowing their layered stacks within the trenches. (684)
Operation SafeHouse, a non-profit organization, was founded in 1991 by Amy Harrison in the Riverside County. The basis of Operation SafeHouse is to aid teens in crisis. The SafeHouse runs a 24-hour, 7 days a week emergency shelter for youth and families in need. Many parents turn to Operation SafeHouse when they believe their children are going down the wrong path and have nowhere else to turn. Throughout the process, the parents and their child are involved with a marriage and family therapist to indicate stress levels and help resolve issues going on in the home. The teenager (ages 11-17) is placed in a 21-day program, called the Emergency Shelter Program. Both are available in Riverside and Coachella Valley. Teens share bedrooms with other teens in the program and participate in chores and counseling.
Los Angeles National Cemetery is rumored to be full. They aren’t accepting new burials right now. However, there are a couple of exceptions. Veterans can share a gravesite with a family member. Moreover, spaces open up when a body is exhumed. That being said, exhumations are rare events.
Cemeteries intrigue me, and Oakland is no exception to this interest. After years of constant bypassing the cemetery in route to school, I first decided to visit around September of my junior year, and explored the entire cemetery for the next two days. I was immediately infatuated, and have returned 5 more times since then. Throughout my tour I was able to view the beautiful statues, weathered graves, and memorial that held a surplus of information about the social statuses of these individuals, their struggles, and ancestry.

The use of caves for multiple burials became popular again in the Middle Bronze Age IIB-C after a long gap. This method suited an urban society in which families wished to bury their dead in the same place over several generations. Dozens of rich burial caves from this period at Jericho are good examples of the custom. The bodies were laid on a wooden bed in the center of the cave. A similar practice––from a possibly earlier date––is evident at the cemetery of Baghuz near Mari (Mazar 1990). At Jericho, older burials were pushed to the sides to allow room for the new ones on the bed or near it. Dozens of individuals were found in the same cave, together with a rich collection of burial gifts, including pottery vessels (some with food remains), wooden containers, weapons, tools, jewelry, and seals. A particular feature of the Jericho tombs is the preservation of organic material, namely wooden furniture (Mazar 1990). Variations between cemeteries in close proximity may indicate either a chronological sequence or the possibility that related tribal
In sixth grade was your locker difficult to open? Opening lockers can be very troublesome, especially if it's your first time.

Sheyenne High School is a safe place to go to school but this is not the case in a lot of the schools in our nation. I believe parents, teachers and students are in agreement that a school needs to be a safe place where students can focus on school work and socialize without the fear of being bullied or being harassed. However, there is some disagreement as to the best policies for making a school safe. Locker searches are one tool schools have to ensure that students are following school policies, but they are not without drawbacks.
