Will 163-year-old Beaufort National Cemetery find new home and room to grow in Bluffton?

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs is hunting for new spots across Beaufort County to expand or replace the landmark 163-year-old Beaufort National Cemetery. One top contender is apparently a 100-acre wooded lot in Bluffton near the May River, about 25 miles away from the current location. That Bluffton property is going for $6.5 million , but local zoning rules currently ban cemeteries, so the owner has been trying to get Beaufort County to change the rules. However, the Beaufort County Council rejected the proposed text amendment in a 7-3 vote Monday, preventing cemeteries within the May River Community Preservation District. Despite the setback, representatives for the property owners intend to explore alternative legislative routes to enable the land sale. Real estate broker John Binder affirmed, “We’re not going to give up.” The urgency for a zoning solution stems from space constraints at the historic 44-acre Beaufort National Cemetery, which is rapidly approaching capacity. Major expansion completed President Abraham Lincoln created the cemetery during the Civil War for Union soldiers who died in local hospitals during the federal occupation following the 1861 Battle of Port Royal. It contains over 18,500 to 19,000 burials spanning every major American conflict from the
