Abstract:

The Cemetery Survey and Stewardship Program was developed by the Office of Archives and History to preserve and protect North Carolina's overlooked cemeteries. Guardianship of these cemeteries was largely under the charge of local historians and as of 2002 seventeen counties had complete survey records. The program aims to organize records, provide technical advice, and create a database to account for these resources before any are lost.
