The Washington Cemetery Board of Trustees
oversees the maintenance of Washington Cemetery
Hagerstown, where the Confederate dead of the
batdes ofAnrietam and South Mountain are buried.
At the Cemetery, 2,468 bodies are interred. Of this
number, 346 have been identified.
The Board of Trustees was chartered in 1870
(Chapter 213, Acts of 1870). Originally the Board
was composed of five members: three from
Maryland and one representative each from Virginia
and West Virginia. Virginia and West Virginia ini-
tially contributed to die cost for funding and main-
taining the Cemetery and so were given a place on
the Board. In the last several years, however, neither
Virginia nor West Virginia has appointed a repre-
sentative. Presently the Board has only three active
members, all from Maryland. They are appointed
by the Governor to serve three-year terms.
