The Town of Lancaster’s oldest cemetery, historic Lancaster Rural Cemetery is non-denominational and centrally located in the town of Lancaster, New York. Here, we are dedicated to maintaining beauty and solitude to honor the dead and bring healing to the living and bereaved. In addition to recognizing the history of our cemetery, and the early settlers buried here, we also want to assure the living we respectfully carry forward custody for these lands, the final resting place for many loved ones. Today at Lancaster Rural Cemetery we provide our services at affordable costs and are here to assist and support families during what is typically a time of great personal loss and sorrow. We pledge reverence and dignity in the cemetery’s daily operations, and are committed to assuring its future.
