Cedar Hill Cemetery

Cedar Hill Cemetery sits on 150 acres of land with many scenic landmarks including two bridges which overlook the ponds. The cemetery was founded in 1901 but not implemented until 1913 with the first president of the cemetery being Mr. W. H. Harrison. The cemetery is also used for many other events, including weddings.

Many early churches held their baptisms at the cemetery and there is a mass grave of victims from the Terra Cotta Railroad wreck. The oldest tombstone at the cemetery is of Philenia W. Patte who passed on November 19, 1871. There have been over 65,000 burials at the cemetery and the chapel hosts many weddings with the ponds providing a picturesque backdrop for photos and other special occasions.

The cemetery has had a Funeral Home opened in recent years which provides high professional services to families in their times on need. A pet section has also recently been added to the cemetery.

Cedar Hill Cemetery has provided a location for many films and a documentary being filmed here. The cemetery is located on the border of the nation's capital and many historic and noble persons have been laid to rest here.
