Petersburg Memorial Cemetery, Scranton
A to F | G to L | M to R | S to Z 

·       Petersburg Protestant Cemetery

Locate in the 900 Block of Paul Avenue in East Scranton. It was also called Petersburg Memorial Cemetery.  It was opened about 1850 on land donated by the Silkman estate. The last burial was made about 1915. The Petersburg Protestant Cemetery Association, which managed the cemetery went out of existence before 1953. There are still many stones, but it is overgrown by bushes and trees. This is NOT to be confused with Petersburg Catholic Cemetery or Old Petersburg German Catholic Cemetery, located off William St. in Dunmore. This cemetery was affiliated with St. Mary’s Church in South Side. All of the bodies were removed to South Side years ago.

Petersburg Memorial Cemetery is located in the 900 block of Paul Ave. in the Petersburg or East Scranton section,

Scranton.  The cemetery is largely neglected and often overgrown.  Many of the stones are broken and/or badly worn.
