Bringing Eastern Cemetery Back from Corruption and Mismanagement

Eastern Cemetery made national news in 1989 when a worker finally blew the whistle on the mistreatment of graves. A New York Times article from November 28, 1989 opens, “The remains of up to 48,000 people were buried in graves that were already occupied at two cemeteries in a practice believed to have begun in the 1920s, investigators for the State Attorney General’s office say.” A gravedigger allegedly reported the activity to the Attorney General, exposing the Louisville Crematories and Cemetery Company, which owned Eastern, Greenwood, and Schardein cemeteries. State investigators now estimate that 100,000 people were buried in 30,000 graves. friendsofeasterncemetery.com -- Support our work with a purchase from www.atlaspreservation.com using coupon code WADE. linktr.ee/millennialstonecleaner
