Rock Creek Cemetery is home to a remarkable and rather well known statue, the Adams Memorial. Photos and information available in Wikipedia. I lived in the DC area most of my life and always liked this cemetery along with the Arlington National Cemetery across the river from the city of Washington DC.
An illustrated look at the World of Graveyards and Cemeteries. There are many Stories behind the Stones that Stand in them. Who knows what we might find?

Thanks, Dorene - I wish I knew how to do such a good job!
Thanks for the info, Wander Woman. Fascinating. Sadly, I didn't know of this cemetery when I spent eight days in Washington in 2002!
