Cemetery History

Village Cemetery, also known as, "Collinsville Cemetery", "Huckleberry Hill Cemetery", and "Hillside Cemetery", is located at 18 Cemetery Road, on the east side of Huckleberry Hill Road, in Collinsville. In 1832, land for this cemetery was donated by Samuel W. Collins for the first burial of Franklin Gordon, a Collins Company employee. Samuel W. Collins and Hon. William Edgar Simonds are buried in this cemetery.

Village Cemetery and Saint Patrick’s Cemeteries are adjacent to each other. They were once separated by stone walls and logs. Today, there is no longer a clear delineation between these two cemeteries. In general, there is a long row of tall pine trees between these cemeteries. The northern section is Village Cemetery (Protestant) and the southern section is Saint Patrick’s Cemetery (Catholic).
