Cemetery Sensitivity Areas

This is a comprehensive list of all the known cemeteries in Prince William County. Baseline data was collected from a 2003 report by the Prince William County Historical Commission.

The GPS datum was not recorded. Location errors in this centroid data are common and sometimes are hundreds of feet in error.
