The Doctors Cemetery


The only cemetery I know of on the island is known as the Doctor's Cemetery. There are 6 graves and all but one are doctors or medical people from the cable era. The 6th grave is a man from the Marshall Islands who was a seaman on the Cable Ship "Restorer." He died here on Midway and his stone was installed by the officers and crew of the ship.

  1. How about a photo of the monument proclaiming Midway the last place the Easter sun raises?
