Welcome to the St. John's Cemetery's Wreaths Across America Page.

On Saturday, December 19, 2020 volunteers laid veterans' wreaths at St. John's Cemetery for the first time. Over 250 veterans are buried in this cemetery.

The Pensacola Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution, are the location sponsors for this new site. The Chapter celebrated its 100th birthday in 2022. This cemetery is the final resting place of many of our founding members.

The Daughters of the America Revolution is a women's service organization around the world that started in 1890.  We are patriotic women who are united in a mission to promote historic preservation, education and patriotism.
