About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Established by Elisha Gordon in 1837. This place of burial was located back from Princeton Avenue, north of Gordon Street. It was divided into four sections by two avenues which intersected. Center Avenue being about on the line of Chapel Street and Barbara Street running north of Gordon Street.

Elisha Gordon organized a company to conduct the enterprise. This was incorporated under the name of The Trenton Cemetery Company.

The cemetery embraced two and a quarter acres of land and comprised of 872 burial plots, some irregular in shape. Burials wre made there for a period, but the place was finally abandoned.
