Military personnel, their families, and civilian employees of the Army lie at rest in the four-sectioned Fort Lawton Cemetery. Representatives of American military history from the Spanish-American War forward are present. The first grave was dug in 1902. The Fort Lawton Cemetery is a "federal" not a "national" cemetery. It has a planned maximum of 912 sites (some of these sites have multiple family occupants), the only sites remaining have been reserved.
