Cemeteries are for the living.

One thing I look for is the receiving vault.
Another thing I look for are crypts or mausoleums.(some cems. don't have any,or they may have only one)

The cemetery down the street from me(North Cedar Hill) has a stone in it (yes thats' right!) with various family members interred and their names inscribed.
However,on one side,a member "lost at sea' is inscribed.He was a captain,and he was 47 years old.(life expectency in those days)
This would be known as a CENOTAPH, as he(his remains) is not there.

Common in 19th C cems. to have stones
that read things like "Father" or "Our Son"
or simply "asleep"
