“Every block, every lot, every daybook entry is part of the story we’re entrusted to keep.”

Oak Hill was established in 1871 by civil engineer William Barker and today spans 28 separate blocks of family plots. The resources below will help you find your way around the grounds and locate the records that matter to your family.
