Answer 3

Arlington National Cemetery is a fascinating place to go.  

There are several Revolutionary War soldiers there. They were re-interred, most likely by their families or descendants.  Here is a link that shows the soldiers and the dates that they were interred:  http://www.arlingtoncemetery.org/histori...

If you get a chance to get out to the DC area, you have to spend some time there, it's worth the trip.  I used to live near there.  The changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers is a somber experience and the entire cemetery is an incredible museum and testament to our freedom.
