About Mount Hebron
Mount Hebron Cemetery was established at the turn of the 20th century, and has served the local Jewish community faithfully by providing dedicated burial plots. To this day, Mount Hebron Cemetery celebrates the heritage of Eastern European immigrants.
In the early 1900s, more Eastern Europeans were immigrating to the U.S. than ever. Before the whole family could afford transportation and lodging, the father or husband figure generally made the journey over. It was uncommon for people to be able to afford their own housing, which led many to seek temporary housing with members of their old village. After saving enough money, they would send for their families and obtain their own living accommodations.
Most plots within the cemetery can be reached through a short walk on the concrete pathway.
Mount Hebron Cemetery has a memorial wall dedicated to the memory of deceased individuals. Regardless of which cemetery they were interred in, the names of your loved ones may be inscribed to pay tribute to their contributions.
There is also a columbarium, which houses the ashes of cremated individuals.
