The Boonsboro Cemetery is comprised of two cemeteries. The oldest, dating from 1798, is a small cemetery located behind Trinity Reformed UCC Church on Potomac Street.  This cemetery includes the grave of William Boone, a cousin to Daniel Boone and one of the founders of the Town of Boonsboro.

The larger cemetery includes both historic and modern gravesites and is located off of Cemetery Lane, just behind Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church at 64 S. Main Street.

The Boonsboro Cemetery Association manages both cemeteries and is comprised by board members from Trinity Lutheran and Trinity Reformed.

All are welcome.
