Cemeteries in Illinois

This directory lists 4,638 cemeteries and memorial parks in Illinois — from large memorial parks to small family and church cemeteries. Small rural burial grounds are still being added, so the true number is somewhat higher.

Identify the cemetery in this list, then contact its office with the person's full name and dates — they can give you the section, lot, and grave number. Free databases, obituary archives, and the VA National Gravesite Locator also help; our step-by-step guide walks through every method.
