and the mere of dead men in 3.x
the watch wall in 3.x
And what places are strong in the worship of Kelemvor? Preferably in the same region.
Undead can also be found in the Dales' underdark, remnants of the faithful of Kiriansalee after the fall of Maerimydra.
I don't know of Kelemvor worship in the Dalelands.

Also Undead can be found plentifully in the Wealdath in thetyr. South in the great forest there lies a corrupted mythal that animates all bodies within a few miles of it. Only this area is also defended by the elves who prevent anyone from stumbeling apon the dreadfull site.
I think Bhaal was also killed on the bridge of the Winding Waters somewhere near Ashabenford and left an area that is infused with divine essence of death. The dead are more restless near Bhaals deathsite. Perhaps lost souls over there make a strong quest site for clerics of Kelemvor.
Clerics of Kelemvor would probably be plentiful in periods of war or famine, travelling the Dales and never resting in their duties towards the final rest.

-Myth Rhynn.
Since the 2e 'Wild magic Zones' = 4e's 'Plagued lands', you're bound to find all sorts of mutated monsters and risen dead in the area (and it still exist in 4e, as per the map that came with Brian James' Cormyr article).
There were also some undead in Myth Drannor, but that would depend on the time period you are playing in. There was also The Vale of Lost Voices in Cormanthor, but I believe that is just a haunt of non-corporeal undead.
The ruins of Phlan also had a large number of Undead, but once again, it sort-of depends on what era you're playing in. That city had it's own 'city of the dead', just like Waterdeep.

-They're not necessarily stereotypical evil Undead, either.
In other words: Non-Elves enter at your own risk!
-Shade & former Tilverton; shadows namely.
Kelemvor is fairly popular in the Western Heartlands (3.0 FRCS). Big monument to him in Cormyr too I think (Skullcrag or something to that affect). He's still a new god, thusly, not many temples and such would be around given chronology of 3.x

-It is a cemetery, of sorts, so...It's kinda like building strip malls over Indian burial grounds.
I aways found cemetarys a major waste of perfectly good real-estate.
Any undead infested areas near the Dalelands?
The remnants of the Old Elven Court and the Darkwood around it are haunted by the ghosts of fallen elven and dwarf defenders from the Dark Court Massacre, or were it during the Arcane Ages when Cormanthyr: Empire of Elves gave us the description to that place. Don't know if the place is still like that in 3rd Ed. or post *cough* Spellplague
But there should be more haunted places in the wood of Cormanthor, because there are these ominous Tree Spirits roaming around then some other elfish ghostly remnants and defenders, maybe even some baelnorn here and there guarding some old grave.
Other places with lots of undead were the old ruins of Shoonach, with Vampires and the like and somewhere hidden deep down is the demilich of the Tome of the Unicorn. I think in the lands of the south are more places like that, old ruins of the ancient human empires with mighty mages and magelords and their old graveyards (have forgotten the names, but there were one or two major sites in Calimshan).
In Halruaa were these two swamps, the one of Akhlaur and the other one, especially the second one (damn it, why do they use all those strange names, I can't remember
)Nothing official, but very little has ever been said about that area, AFAIK, so its a pretty simple thing to put whatever you like there without disrupting canon.
Its a cool little area that's great for DM's hombrew ideas, and it's near several other interesting and cool locales (Like the Glacier of the White Worm and Ironfang Keep). I've even seen a few threads where folks stuck the Temple of Elemental Evil there (from GH) without any problems and few revisions.
What little there is can be read on pg. 159 of the 3eFRCS.

-Golf courses, too. Golf is a sport that gets me angry, embodying the "ideal" Marxist class differential between rich and poor.
Either way, there's lots of grass to mow. :P
Polo, too... stupid ponys...

Its not like Wizards doesn't go out of their way to disrupt cannon. ;) So, homebrew people. :P
THats the sulotion for the graveyard problem.
The OP had also asked about centers of Kelemvor's worship. There's a Necropolis in Var the Golden led by a priestess of Kel, and devoted to Kel's worship, and the Eternal Order (Kelemvor's Paladins) is based in Ireabor. In my game, I have a large contingent of priests and Paladins at Bloodstone gate, largely b/c of the undead from the Vault of Gnashing Teeth, but also in response to the Dracoliches still in Vaasa from Sammasters' actions in the Year of Rogue Dragons.
This might help, a listing of all named temples in the Realms (might be a bit out of date):

Scroll down to 'Kelemvor'.

It is out-of-date. Though I'm presently in the process of updating it to around the end of 3e. I've not had a chance to sit down and start collating all the 4e FR references to new temples for the various deities and such.

But it is still helpful, thanks for that. It is more useful to take a look onto that list, rather than search all the books for the name of some "hidden" temple within the pages. ;)
The updated listing of temples will also include the sources for each reference as well.
