Geneology and understanding our heritage is a growing hobby
today! Many people have taken up the
task of researching their family tree --including our own staff!
If you are interested in learning if any of your relatives
are interred in our cemetery, please contact us with your request at the following address, admin@mtolivetmemorialpark.com. We will research your relatives for you
and send whatever records we can.
What information can we provide?
The information kept in our records over the years has
changed for many reasons. For all
interments over 75 years old, we can provide name, last known address, date and place of death,
date of burial, and next of kin (if known). For some burials, we may be able to
verify date and place of birth and veteran status. Many times, we are able to provide copies of
obituaries and sometimes newspaper articles that we may have on file. We do not receive copies of death
certificates, but we can inform you of the place of death so you can contact
the county clerk’s office and request the death certificate. For interments that have occurred within the last 75 years, we can only verify interment location, date of burial and date and location of death. By law, we can not give you birth information or next of kin information.
Prior to the 1950’s, our records are minimal. We used to be part of the Christian Catholic
Church. Many of our records kept there were
destroyed by a fire that burned the church.
While we still have interment records for all interments, we might not
have further information such as obituaries.
All research and information is provided free of
charge, so your patience is appreciated!
