This monument near the Edgmont Avenue side of the Cemetery marks the
final resting place for the remains of 52 unidentified victims of the Eddystone
Ammunition Works Explosion on the morning of April 10, 1917.
More than 12,000 persons gathered here on the morning of April 13, 1917 for perhaps the largest funeral service in the Cemetery's history. Decorations still appear at this grave site today - likely brought by descendants of some of these unidentified souls. |
