History
Fort Leavenworth National Cemetery, located just north of Leavenworth, KS, is located near the center of the historic Fort Leavenworth Military Reservation.
The garrison of Fort Leavenworth is one of the oldest continuously-active military post located west of the Mississippi River and is noted for its significant role in the development of the American West.
Conflicts arose when the trade routes crossed lands that belonged to various Native American tribes.
Traders soon appealed to the U.S. government for protection and aid in keeping the routes open.
In response, the government established a number of military posts west of the Mississippi River—including Fort Leavenworth.
Monuments and memorials
Two large grave-markers that look like monuments are located in the cemetery: the 12-foot granite marker for General Henry Leavenworth and an 8-foot granite marker for Colonel Edward Hatch.
Medal of Honor
Medal of Honor recipients VA lists as interred or memorialized here include Captain Harry Bell (Philippine Insurrection); Captain Thomas W. Custer (Civil War); Colonel Roger H. C. Donlon (Vietnam War).

“They handled everything with our mother’s monument — delivery, cemetery coordination, installation and photos afterward. We live in another state, so knowing it was set correctly and respectfully meant the world to us.”

“The deep cleaning and leveling completely transformed the family plot. The before-and-after photos were incredible, and now the stone looks like it did when it was first installed. We’re very grateful for the care they showed.”

“We added dates and a portrait to an existing monument through their engraving team. Everything matched perfectly and was done right at the cemetery. Communication was clear from start to finish.”
