Crown Point Area Historic Cemetery
Cemetery
Historic burying ground in the Crown Point vicinity containing graves of Revolutionary War-era residents and soldiers who died in the garrison or during lake corridor operations. The cemetery reflects the Champlain Valley's mixed character: French, English, and Dutch settlers, divided loyalties, and persistent exposure to the military operations that made this region one of the most contested in North America.
