Baltimore Cemeteries

Where to Start

Available here:

  • The records of the Baltimore City Health Department (BRG 19) include listings of deaths which occurred in the city between 1834 and 1840. The entries include the name of the cemetery where known.  The index to these records has been digitized and is available online at BRG19-13.
    • PLEASE NOTE: The original records are in fragile and some lists may not be available for circulation in our public search room due to their condition. However, these records are abstracted in the following publication: Henry C. Peden, Baltimore City Deaths and Burials, 1834-1840. Westminster, Md: Family Line Publications, 1998. Although the Baltimore City Archives does not have a copy of this publication, copies are available for reference purposes at the Enoch Pratt Free Library (Maryland Department) and the Maryland Historical Society.
