Name of Cemetery ??

[needinfo]

Does anyone know the name of the cemetery on Hardy Street near downtown? Is it Roseland or Highlands? If so, is it city owned or who owns it?

Have great grand parents & cousins buried there and cannot remember the name of it.

The name is Oak Lawn Cemetery, and it is city owned.

Roseland is on 7th near Hercules Highland is further down 7th near the University. I thought the one on Hardy Near the Library was just called City Cemetery, but i could be wrong, I don't have anybody there.

......yeah, Oak Lawn, my bad.

Thanks for the info.

I could not remember the name of it. If my memory is correct, my family are all near each other sort of in the center. Nobody has been placed there for 30+ years I guess or longer. I know my grandparents had a plot near my great grandparents saved but they are buried in another state.

I think this is the one I have heard called the "New City Cemetary" for years. I have no idea where the old one is...

It is Oak Lawn, because after Katrina, all the trees were down and we just called it Lawn.
