Washington Park exists today on the site that was once used as cemeteries operated by the First Presbyterian Congregation of Cincinnati and the Episcopal Society of Christ Church in the Parish of Cincinnati. The land was used for cemeteries from 1810 to 1855. In 1855, the city of Cincinnati acquired the land and converted it to a park. Most of the burials were relocated to other cemeteries, mainly Spring Grove Cemetery. During the renovation of the park in 2011, three inscribed stones were found and are now displayed in a planting bed near the dog park.

The cemetery is located in the City of Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio, and is #4609 (12th Street Burial Ground / Presbyterian Burying Ground) in "Ohio Cemeteries 1803-2003", compiled by the Ohio Genealogical Society.
