Would you like a photograph of a headstone? I will do City of Cleveland (owned) Cemeteries.  If someone else would like to register in doing requests at other cemeteries, please let me know.  I get a lot of requests for other cemeteries and I am not capable of doing them all.  (I am independent from the City of Cleveland.  They are in no way participating in photographs of headstones and are not liable for such services I render.)

Headstone photograph requests

NOTE:

• Please have grave location before visiting the cemetery.  Maps for all City of Cleveland (owned) cemeteries are at Highland Park Cemetery and some can be downloaded including other surrounding cemeteries.

• The City of Cleveland (owned) Cemeteries does not have birth information, next of kin, death certificates or cemetery inscription information.

• Before writing to the cemetery, make sure you have the following information:  Full name of deceased, date of death, cemetery where buried.  Do not send general requests such as, "please send me a list of all Smiths buried in your cemeteries."  The records are not computerized at the cemetery at this time.

Do you need a headstone for a grave?  See the list of monument and headstone dealers in the local area.

Wanted:  I would be most interested in sharing bios and/or pictures of the inhabitants of this cemetery.  If you would like to share some history about a loved one buried in West Park Cemetery, please email me.  I will post the information on this web site to share.

I am also looking for pictures, old pictures if possible of what this cemetery looked like long ago and of graves at this cemetery.
