WPA Cemetery Plans
- During the Great Depression, the Work Projects Administration (WPA) put millions of Americans to work on public works projects that ranged from building trails in National Parks to creating over 500 surveys of Maine cemeteries. These cemetery plans, transferred from the Office of the Adjutant General and now part of the holdings of the Maine State Archives, help us to identify war veterans’ final resting places.
