Erie Cemetery is owned by the Erie Cemetery Association.

History

The Erie Cemetery Association was formed in 1850, after several years of work by a group of Erie businessmen to establish a beautiful, non-denominational burial ground that could be shared by all. Erie Cemetery’s first burial took place in January, 1851, although the cemetery was not formally consecrated and dedicated until May 20 of that year.  The cemetery is considered an excellent example of the American Rural Cemetery Movement.

    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.
