About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Also known as The Alms House of Prince George's County, Maryland. This was a County Financed Program. The caring for the County's destitute dated back to 1768. The original Alms House was constructed in 1772, and its successor built approximately 100 years later on the same site. Both structures have long since faded into obscurity, leaving no current landmark(s) to reflect the exact site of the County's Program. The physical location of the Alms House was noted to be in front of the cemetery, (notes describe the cemetery as being located in an open field directly to the rear of the Alms House). Only one single grave marker remains at the site of The Alms House, where those listed were buried. Petitioners were voted and acted upon by the Executive Committee, comprising of the Trustees of The Alms House. Residents consisted of indigents, paupers, the disabled and any other citizens of Prince George's County with no visible means of financial income or support. Paupers (with previous ties to Prince George's County), who died in neighboring jurisdictions were also buried here.
