Boston - Freedom Trail: Granary Burial Ground Founded in 1660, the Granary Burying Ground is Boston's third-oldest cemetery. In this two-acre plot are the remains of more famous people than any other small graveyard in America. It serves as the final resting place for three signers of the Declaration of Independence, nine governors of Massachesetts, the victims of the Boston Massacre, and many notable Revolutionary War-era patriots. Originally part of the Common, its name derives from the old grain warehouse that once stood next door on the site of the Park Street Church. The graveyard is populated by three kinds of graves. Most common are those marked by a headstone or footstone. The stones have been rearranged many times over the years so they bear little relation to the bodies that are actually beneath them. Table tombs are just permanent markers for brick-encased tombs buried below the ground underneath them. And vaults are found around the perimeter of the burying ground, flush against the ground or atttached to a nearby wall. Vaults and table tombs were preferred by wealthy families, since they were more secure and could be owned by an entire family. Even though a tombstone may have only one name on it, several people were usually buried in a single tomb. Notable burials here include signers of the Declaration of Independence John Hancock, Samuel Adams, and Robert Treat Paine; patriots James Otis, James Bowdoin, and Paul Revere; Boston Massacre victims including Crispus Attucks; Benjamin Franklin's parents; prominent early Bostonians Peter Faneuil, Colonial Governor Richard Bellingham Esquire, First Mayor John Phillips; and even a Mother Goose.
