Among those laid to rest here is Fontaine Beckham, mayor of Harpers Ferry, killed during John Brown's raid of 1859 — one of several figures tied to that pivotal chapter of American history who rest at Edge Hill Cemetery. Alongside them lie veterans, statesmen, and founding families of Jefferson County, with a marked Confederate section and a stop on the West Virginia Civil War Trails. Researching your family history?
