At least 189 students were buried at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School's cemetery, according to the Carlisle Indian School Digital Resource Center at nearby Dickinson College.
Early in the 20th century, annual enrollment at the Indian School reached 1,000 students, representing more than 70 tribes. Native Americans served in 'the Great War,' but the 1st World War triggered closure of the 39-year-old Carlisle Indian Industrial School. On September 1, 1918, Carlisle Barracks reverted to War Department control.
Most students were Sioux, Chippewa, Cherokee, Cheyenne, Menominee, and Alaskan Native. Some students graduated in their late teens or early twenties but others left early due to illness or homesickness. The Bureau of Indian Affairs founded 24 more American Indian boarding schools after Carlisle.
A cemetery was also needed. At the Carlisle school, as on the reservations, the health of many Indian people was in peril particularly after European contact. Some students were stricken with tuberculosis or smallpox. Others could not cope with the severe stress of separation from family and tribe.
