Abstract
The Coleman-Leigh-Warren cemetery was apparently first used about 1821 and the last known burial was in 1870. In spite of this relatively short period of use, the reservation of the cemetery property has been passed down unbroken. Unfortunately, the graveyard has seen multiple episodes of significant vandalism, focusing on the destruction of the individual monuments and theft. This report outlines our recommendations for the preservation of the cemetery, as well as for various conservation and restoration efforts.
