There are cemeteries in the haiti-tlm-50 map WMS layer (see wiki). 

"Cimetière" in French, apparently sometimes abbreviated as "Cim."

Dear Folks, 

This is an ICRC update on the issue of disposing of the
bodies....it is an official document---may be of interest as people are
trying to make decisions about what are the priority issues....also
 may affect how the bodies are identified.  Please pass on to the key
people in your network so that it may be disseminated widely on the
ground...

best, Jer
