Next to the outhouse....
Which is kinda what they did back in the olden days, although maybe not next to an outhouse.
Here in NJ, on US 1 south, is a single grave said to be of a maiden who was buried where she'd watch the river awaiting her fiance's return....It's surrounded by the parking lot of a movie complex; previously there was a flea market there (apparently it was all a farm at one time) and the grave was not allowed to be moved or harmed in any way when the complex took over.
It's kinda creepy that there's a single grave at the edge of a parking lot...
There is also an undisturbed family plot in the Holmdel Arts Center, just off to the side of the Vietnam Memorial Center there and still another off to the side of a local industrial park that won't be disturbed.
NJ is weird....
