History

Sarasota National Cemetery resulted from the passage of the National Cemetery Expansion Act of 2003, when Congress directed the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to establish six new national cemeteries. The NCA purchased acreage from J. Arlin Hawkins, in 2007, land that had been operated as a family-operated ranch since the 1870s. Sarasota National Cemetery was formally dedicated in 2008 and opened for burials the following year. It is the sixth national cemetery established in Florida and the 127th in the national cemetery system.

What makes us Different?

Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
