Mt. Washington Cemetery

Mt. Washington Cemetery is located in the heart of Mt. Washington, in the eastern suburbs of Cincinnati, Ohio.
The main entrance is at 2030 Sutton Avenue.

There are over 6000 burials recorded in the cemetery, dating from the early 1800s.

On Sunday, May 1, 2011, Mt. Washington Cemetery inaugurated and dedicated its new Cenotaph Garden with a ceremony from the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War and Post 484, American Legion. Present were descendants of Isaac Hurley, whose grave is unmarked and in an unknown location within the cemetery.

Here is a link to a video of the program.

The Mt. Washington Cemetery Association (a volunteer non-profit organization) administers and cares for the cemetery. If you appreciate the natural beauty of the cemetery and would like to contribute time or money, please use our contacts page to let us know how you want to help.

The windstorm on September 14, 2008 did severe damage to several of our oldest trees, and the cemetery association
has had to dip into our funds for cleanup.

We also had a break-in to the Samuel Hannaford Design Mortuary Building, which triggered a renovation to replace the old wooden floor (which was in danger of collapsing into the basement) with a concrete floor. These expenses amount to around $7,000.
