About Clarkville Cemetery
Clarkville Cemetery is a municipal cemetery in the Town of Edinburg, Saratoga County, New York. Public sources place it on Tennantville Road, and the Town of Edinburg lists it among the cemeteries it manages. The town also notes that plots are available for sale there through Town Hall.

Cemetery Location & Burial Research
Public references place Clarkville Cemetery on Tennantville Road in Edinburg, New York. Find a Grave provides coordinates for the cemetery, and the Town of Edinburg confirms it as one of the town cemeteries. Families requesting service should provide the cemetery name clearly because Edinburg has several separate burial grounds.
- confirm the cemetery name as Clarkville Cemetery
- note that it is located on Tennantville Road in Edinburg
- include the memorial name, family surname, or approximate location when requesting service

Historic & Local Context
The Edinburg Historical Society notes that Clarkville Cemetery contains graves of Civil War veterans and others who were relocated during the flooding of the Sacandaga Valley. That gives the cemetery special local significance beyond routine burial use and makes it an important site for both family-history research and respectful memorial preservation.
This historical context matters because older memorials in rural cemeteries often face long-term weather exposure, biological growth, staining, and inscription fading. That makes preservation-first care especially important for families who want the memorial to remain readable and presentable over time.
Common Memorial Preservation Issues at Clarkville Cemetery
- moss and lichen growth on older memorials
- surface staining from long-term weather exposure
- faded inscriptions and reduced readability
- biological buildup on granite, marble, and bronze markers
- family plot presentation needs before visits, anniversaries, or tribute dates
Preservation note for this cemetery: older memorials should not be treated with aggressive methods such as pressure washing. For a fuller explanation, read our guide: Why We Never Power Wash Gravestones.
What Families Should Know Before Requesting Service
Because Edinburg has multiple municipal and historic cemeteries, the first step is confirming the correct cemetery name.

- older memorials often need extra care when cleaning and preserving surfaces
- burial-record resources can help confirm the correct cemetery before service is requested
