When you report a cemetery to DHR, we will check to see if it needs to be added or updated in our official cultural resources inventory. If you need assistance or would like to request a follow-up, completing this form will help us to connect you to the correct staff member at DHR. Recording a cemetery using this form will begin the process of adding it to our databases at the Virginia Department of Historic Resources.
Recording a cemetery here will help us follow up with you, but does not guarantee protection.
