Among those who’ve been laid to rest there are famed musician John Philip Sousa, as well as J. Edgar Hoover and his rumored lover, and D.C. Mayor Marion Barry. And the bodies of Dolley Madison and John Quincy Adams, kept there in a public vault until their burials elsewhere. Presidential assassins and N**i saboteurs were executed at the nearby prison.
The graveyard, which dates from 1807, also contains the remains of civilians killed in a horrific munitions blowup, whose funeral President Lincoln attended, and those who died in the U.S. Navy’s worst accident.
