San Lorenzo: Cemeteries



  

San Lorenzo Cemetery

San Lorenzo Cemetery (now San Lorenzo Pioneer Memorial Park) had its first recorded burial in 1853. The land had probably been used as a cemetery for a few years before then. A cemetery association was established to maintain the grounds in 1864. It is located on Hesperian at College Street (along Highway 238).

All Wars Memorial

San Lorenzo's All Wars Memorial is unique because it honors veterans both living and dead. Usually, a memorial only lists those who died in combat. The memorial is located next to Village Realty at 1048 Grant Avenue, across from Arroyo High School.
