About Us

FREE HOME CEMETERY ASSOCIATION INC is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation, maintenance, and respectful care of the historic Free Home Cemetery. Established to honor those who came before us, we are committed to upholding the dignity, history, and community significance of this sacred resting place.

Our Mission

Our mission is to ensure that Free Home Cemetery remains a peaceful, well-maintained, and historically preserved site for generations to come. We are devoted to preserving the stories and legacies of those buried here, supporting families with loved ones interred on the grounds, and encouraging community involvement in the stewardship of this important landmark.

Our History

Free Home Cemetery has long served as a final resting place for members of the local community, including early settlers, veterans, and generations of families who helped shape the area. Over time, it became clear that a dedicated organization was needed to care for the grounds, coordinate upkeep, and protect the cemetery’s future. FREE HOME CEMETERY ASSOCIATION INC was formed to meet that need, rooted in a sense of respect, tradition, and community spirit.

What We Do

  • Grounds Maintenance: We coordinate volunteer and contracted efforts to ensure the cemetery is clean, safe, and beautiful year-round.

  • Grave Preservation: We work to protect headstones and monuments from damage and natural deterioration.

  • Community Engagement: We organize memorial events, clean-up days, and educational programs to keep the community connected to the cemetery's history.

  • Genealogical Support: We assist families and researchers in locating burial records and preserving family heritage.

  • Fundraising & Donations: As a nonprofit, we rely on generous donations and community support to fund ongoing maintenance and preservation efforts.
