C. ^aiUburjr A new fence now surrounds | Bay View Cemetery, Morehcad City. Cost of the fence was borne by a native citizen of Morehead City who has made many con tributions to the town. He re quested, however, that his name not be used in connection with this gift. The first use of the ground lhat later became Bay View Ceme tery after the opening of More head City in 1858, was for an army camp following the coming of Union forces to make the as sault on Fort Macon in April 1862. The town had reached a popu lation of nearly 300 by 1870 and demand increased for a suitable burial place. An entire square was bought from the Shepard Point Land Company, which is the present old section of the cemetery west of 20th Street. The first burial there was that of Jasper Phillips Sept. 29, 1873. Previous to establishing a ceme- | tery in the town, burials were | made in the Old Town Grave* j yard in Beaufort. Some were .-j made in the Pigott plat on Crab Point. In 1905 the property east of 20th Street was acquired and later added to on the smith. A new cemetery of some 50 acres, ' outside the town limits, is in the process of being landscaped and platted.
