Veterans of the 
Milford Center Cemetery 


 

 

 

The Milford Center Cemetery is the final resting place for many Veterans.  We seek to honor these veterans by making sure that each Veteran's service is recognized through the placing of an American Flag on their grave. If you are aware of a Veteran's grave that is not marked with a flag please contact  Stephen Fournier  and we will make sure that a flag is placed on the grave site 

 

Among the many Veterans interred in our cemetery there are at least 78 veterans that have served our nation during war time.  We have veterans for the Revolutionary War, War of 1812, Civil War,  Spanish America War, World War I, World War II, Korean War, and the Vietnam War.  We have two veterans who were killed in action, and two from the Civil War who died of disease.  We have a veteran who served in both WWI and WWII.  Also a veteran who served in WWII and the Korean War.
