Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox cemetery Bellevue Cemetery is a historic cemetery in Danville, Kentucky.[1] It was established in the 1840s and was originally named Danville City Cemetery.[2]
The Danville National Cemetery is located within Bellevue Cemetery.[3] The federal government purchased 18 lots within Bellevue Cemetery at the beginning of the American Civil War. The initial burials were Union soldiers who died at several Danville hospitals and subsequent burials included reinterments from other cemeteries.[2] In 1876, the half-acre, rectangular plot in the northwest corner[4] of Bellevue Cemetery was designated a national cemetery.[2]
A lot in Bellevue Cemetery adjacent to the national cemetery contains the burial of 66 Confederate soldiers.[2]
Bellevue Cemetery is managed by the City of Danville[1] and is open to new burials.[2]
