Old Dublin Memorial
Park
Historical Marker Text
The earliest use of this burial ground was in
1864 at the death of Ellen, daughter of J. H. Keith. William ("Big
Bill") Keith donated this memorial to his Aunt Ellen with the
understanding that it would be used for free public interments. It was
called "The Old Dublin Cemetery" until 1961 when an endowment
was created and the name was changed. There are about 1400 graves
including 292 without names that are noted only with filed stones or
funeral home markers. This graveyard is still in use.
