Cemetery Marker
A view of the backside of the cemetery marker. Research continues to identify Junaluska community members interred in the cemetery. The rear of the marker was intentionally left polished so that names could be added. Thirteen names have been added to the marker.

Boone Cemetery Headstones
Boone Cemetery and JHA Community Activism
A view of the Black section of the cemetery in April 2022. In the front are four headstones. Three of the headstones are for the white Union soldiers who were interred in the area. The tombstones are new replacements that were installed in Spring 2018. The original tombstones had been stolen or were heavily deteriorated. In the background is the cemetery marker for the African Americans who were buried in the cemetery.
