Welcome

Wooster Cemetery officially started in 1852 and sits on what was an old oak forest. Several of those old oaks remain. Today a variety of trees, deciduous and conifer are found throughout the cemetery.

The cemetery mirrors Wooster in that we have folks from all walks of life. This was true when the cemetery and the town were young and is true today. Since the cemetery was started many things have changed, instead of a horse drawn carriage leading a procession through the main gate, today we have an automobile hearse leading the procession.

The cemetery is a quiet place to visit many days throughout the year, though on one of your visits you may see us busy serving one of our families, maintaining and beautifying it too. To help serve the community better (with activities and improvements) we are beginning a 501-c-3 organization (Friends of Wooster Cemetery). By checking in with us on this web site or on Facebook, you will be able to keep up to date on our activities.
