To reach this cemetery drive south on Fullerton Ave, from Rt 22 east or west. The cemetery will be on the right or west side of the street.

This cemetery was originally called Hillside Cemetery. Land was originally owned by Jonathan & S. Caroline Sterner, and founded by Henry J Kurtz, each of who are buried here. It is now owned and maintained by the C.D.C., which oversees several cemeteries. The office is only open during the day.

The cemetery is in good condition, with some overgrowth, which is being worked on to improve.

I walked and read this cemetery in July of 2005. This contains all known and visible burials.

    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.
