There is a small cemetery on hospital ground where the town people of the area where buried when the area was still Fort Steilacoom.
The historic patient cemetery is located on the site of the former hospital farm, which is now Fort Steilacoom Park. The cemetery is across the road from the former dairy barn, it is adjacent to the off leash dog park.
The Eastern State Hospital cemeteries were uncovered about nine years ago, they were the legacy of the former volunteer coordinator. GCA has been contacted by a few individuals who have been interested in doing more, but we do not know whether they have organized.
The cemetery at the former Northern State Hospital was covered by ground and planted with wild flowers in the early 1990s. A high school project installed a brick wall memorial at the site.
