Book Description

Mount Olivet Cemetery, located at 2930 Frederick Road, Baltimore, Maryland, was founded in 1845 and dedicated on 16 July 1849. It replaced an earlier cemetery located at Lombard and Paca Streets in downtown Baltimore. No records have survived from the old address, and no information about the original cemetery is known to exist. The records herein are not tombstone inscriptions, but rather the cemetery management records which have been transcribed and indexed by the author. These records give various data, including dates of death, burial, plot owners, dates of disinterment, sometimes dates of birth, parents, cause of death, and other data. A full-name index completes this work.
