Trying to move the too large list from the Congressional Cemetery article to here. Some things to do

slim down the too large list there - hard to do but meaningful
divide congressmen up into Cenotaph vs. no-Cenotaph, and mark after the name if somebody is buried under his cenotaph.
add names from the Category:burials at congressional cemetery
add names that link to Congressional Cemetery
double check in the articles that its the right person in the right place

Any help appreciated. Smallbones (talk) 17:10, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Congressional Cenotaphs section

This section is almost complete. The NRHP nomination says that there are 168 Congressional Cenotaphs. There are 167 here, but a few things might be questionable.

Thorton was not a congressman - should his cenotaph be included (believe so, the 168 were specifically called structures in the nomination)
One memorializes 2 congressmen (Boggs and Begich)
One has a slightly different form (rough edges) and is in granite. (Maybe a replacement?) - (no, he was from Vermont, the Granite State Smallbones (talk) 17:12, 13 August 2012 (UTC))[reply]

But counting the "nearly identical structures" there are 167. Barnstar to whoever finds the last one! Smallbones (talk) 19:32, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
