Franklin Pierce is buried in Old North Cemetery in Concord, New Hampshire, not far from his retirement home. He was somewhat supportive of the South at the outbreak of the Civil War, so he was very unpopular in his home region in New England. He spent his final days in obscurity. Apparently someone remembers him, though, because his grave has had fresh flowers both times I have visited it.
