Markers and Monuments

LOT LOCATION IS DETERMINED BY THE TYPE OF HEADSTONE DESIRED

Crown Hill Cemetery is divided into large sections. Each section has rules that govern the type of memorial that can be placed on the burial property. You will see some very personal and unique memorials at Crown Hill, but they fall into three major categories:

Monument

  • Traditionally families will choose an upright memorial for their lot which bears the family name. Individual names and dates can also be inscribed on the monument if you wish, or head/foot markers can memorialize the individual burial spaces. (Most sections require a minimum of 4 spaces for a monument)

    Pillow

  • Some people choose an individual or companion stone that is slightly raised (8" in the back) called a pillow or bevel marker to memorialize the burial.

    Lawn-Level

  • There are a few sections at Crown Hill that permit only lawn-level (flat) markers. Although these are the most economical, finding the burial space can be difficult in the fall when there are leaves on the ground and in the winter when there is snow on the ground.
