Additional Description: The final resting place of Francis Scott Key and his family, Mount Olivet Cemetery was established in 1854.

More than 34,000 people, including soldiers North and South who fought in the battles of Antietam, Monocacy, Gettysburg and South Mountain, are interred here.Close-up of photo on marker
