A multi-faceted community-based project, "Naming the Unnamed" memorializes 218 men buried at the Concord Reformatory Cemetery, bringing this historic place forward as an integral part of Concord’s future.
We recognize the individuals buried in the prison cemetery as people, not numbers; as we turn the markers into monuments and honor those who died while in custody. Explore this marker gallery in your own quest to put names to the numbers.
The Concord Reformatory opened in 1878, with seven men interned to the cemetery in it's first year. Over it's 118 year time span, 218 graves dotted this small hill in Concord, MA.
Learn more about the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail and the upcoming plans for a contemplative seating area paying respect to the 218 men laid to rest in the Concord Prison Cemetery.
