The cemetery is located in city of Highland Hills, Cuyahoga County, Ohio, and is # 15561 (Cleveland Memorial Park / Potters Field) in "Ohio Cemeteries 1803-2003", compiled by the Ohio Genealogical Society.
The cemetery is registered with the Ohio Division of Real Estate and Professional Licensing (ODRE) as the Memorial Park (Potter's Field) with registration license number CGR.2002012384.
As many as 18000 unmarked burials have taken place here during the period 1910-2015, the vast majority of which are unmarked. Individual graves may contain as many as 4 burials, most placed only in fiberboard boxes, and unmarked save for a wooden stake showing the infirmary number for that death. There are very few stakes remaining; essentially all the graves are unmarked. Records list the section # as 300 for all burials; further location information includes lot/tier/grave numbers, but the cemetery has no map or lot markings to aid in locating the burial site for a specific individual.
The office is very helpful in locating information.
