About Massachusetts: Middlesex County, Cambridge, Mt. Auburn Cemetery

Mt. Auburn Cemetery, which is located in Middlesex County, was founded in 1831 by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society as the first in a national movement toward creating "rural" cemeteries. The cemetery is now a haven in the midst of the city and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This collection gathers information from headstones in the cemetery. In addition to providing the decedent's name, it includes, where available, the following information: birthdate, birthplace, death date, death place, relationship information (i.e., wife of or brother of), military service, occupation, and age.

Note: This database contains only a portion of the persons buried in the cemetery. Part of an ongoing project is to provide information on every person interred in this large cemetery. Ancestry.com will update this collection as additional records become available from Lyn Legere.
