The original cemetery was only one acre, purchased from a local
resident in 1863. The plot was located in the northwest corner
of the town cemetery surrounded by a picket fence. Additional
land was acquired in 1936, 1937, 1948 and 1951.
The cemetery was established to provide a burial site for
veterans who died in one of two nearby hospitals. Of the
original 147 Union soldiers buried at Beverly National Cemetery,
only 10 are unknown. For much of its history, the cemetery
handled relatively few interments. The number of interments grew
dramatically, however, when space became unavailable at
Philadelphia National Cemetery. Beverly National Cemetery was
listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
