Great Lakes Naval Base Cemetery is located on the Naval Base and permission would need to be granted at the proper place to visit it. It is currently located behind the building at 510 Seabee Wy.

The cemetery was used from about 1917 to 1957, judging from the listings. Originally, the cemetery was located farther east, next to the installation’s original Naval Hospital. It was in the winter of 1919, that the cemetery moved to its current location. While the cemetery is largely closed to new burials, the most recent burial took place in 2016.

From 1975 to 1979, Gary F. Holcomb Sr. took on the duty to restore the cemetery after nearly 30 years of neglect. He made numerous repairs to tombstones. He has photos of before, during and after of all repairs.

The burial site is owned and maintained by an appointed staff of the Great Lakes Naval Base in North Chicago, IL.

A free online library of cemetery records from thousands of cemeteries across the world, for historical and genealogy research.

What makes us Different?

Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
