San Francisco California appears to have very few cemeteries. There is a reason for this, it has been illegal to bury the dead within the city limits for more than 120 years and where these discarded gravestones end up.

This blog from BillionGraves explains why there are no cemeteries and why discarded gravestones appear on the beach, in gullies and form the base for a highway.
