The Abbey Mausoleum - Allan C Curtiss

The Abbey Mausoleum sits on 3/4 acre surrounded by Henderson Hall of the U.S. Marine Corps in Arlington National Cemetery.

It was built in 1926 and was managed by a corporation through 1960. Since then the interior is in disrepair, having suffered from vanalism and lack of maintenance.

In its time the mausoleum was a presigious place in which to be buried.

Allan C. Curtiss, son of Norman and Amelia Curtiss is buried there.

Date & Place: 1994
