Mount Olivet Cemetery
Frederick County, Maryland
515 S. Market Street, Frederick, MD 21701
Lat: 39° 24' 08"N, Lon: 77° 24' 59"W
This cemetery began after churches in the area joined together
and sold stock to raise funds to build a cemetery. That stock was
exchanged for 12 grave lots. This site was chosen and platted out
in the fall of 1853, then dedicated in June of 1854. It now contains
32 acres.
The manager lives in the residence at the cemetery. The number
of interments exceeds 4,400, of which 310 bodies of the Confederates
were brought from the battle fields of Antietam, Monocacy, Gettysburg
and South Mountain and are also buried here.
