Description
We have in Fauquier County a host of Historic Members of Fauquier's Society and Veteran Graves, located in remote family plots throughout the county.
These Veterans range from the Revolution in 1776, War of 1812, Spanish American War, Civil War, WWI, and even a few from WWII.
The Foundation is seeking Individuals, or Families that will adopt a veterans site, visit it at least twice a year, and mow or do the necessary yard work to keep the cemetery in good order, and notify the Foundation if the site is threatened or there has been damaged by any source.
Members from the Foundation will meet with you and explain what to look for when visiting and what should be done, based on the variables of each site.
Once you have agreed on the adoption, a reporting schedule will be set and all future visits are on your own time, reporting to the foundation when competed and condition of the site. (Photos welcome)
If the tombstone needs cleaning, or repair the Foundation will assist and supply the appropriate products. NEVER SCRUB A TOMBSTONE With ANYTHING, Other than your Glove.
