There are two ways to search burials: mapped burials and unlocated burials. Mapped Burials have a documented lot location at Oakland. If a burial is unlocated, that may mean the individual was moved moved to another cemetery. It may also mean there are incomplete records for the burial that do not allow it to mapped.
To find the burial location and record, enter the name of the individual. The tool will locate the individual on the map with a black dot. Clicking on the black dot pulls up the burial record and section information.
