Burials in Gloucester, Massachusetts Cemeteries

In October, 2006, the Historic Burial Grounds Subcommittee of the Gloucester Historical Commission donated six volumes of Gloucester Cemetery Records to NEHGS. They also provided an electronic copy of the records, which we present here as a searchable database. The database contains 1,482 records, which span the years 1720 - 2003. The records were collected from the following cemeteries: Bray, Cove Hill, Langsford St., Magnolia Point, Proctor, Prospect (High) St., Second Parish, Sumner St., and Universalist Burial Yard.
