Daniel Boone's Grave, Frankfort Cemetery

Frankfort Cemetery began in the early
1840s and was the second incorporated Memorial park in the country. It
overlooks the city of Frankfort and the Kentucky River. Daniel and
Rebecca Boone were the first to be laid to rest in the cemetery.
Previously buried near their final home in Missouri they were moved here
with great ceremony in September 1845. Since that time thousands of
Frankfort’s citizens have joined them including many famous Kentuckians -
from  Governors and soldiers, statesmen and business owners. The
cemetery still has many available plots and is used on a daily basis.
