There are two cemeteries on the Onondaga Nation Reservation. Please check both listings before adding any names.

This (newer) cemetery is located off Route 11A, on the Onondaga Indian Nation Territory near the Longhouse, south of Nedrow (near Syracuse, NY). There is an older part, which is located closer to Route 11A, and a newer part, which is closer to Martin Lane. There are about 30 old stones left in the older part. There is another cemetery on the reservation, that is south of the school, between the dam and Gibson Rd, which is actually considered the Old Onondaga Nation Cemetery.

The Onondaga Nation is a member of the Haudenosaunee ("People of the Long House"), an alliance of native nations united for hundreds of years by traditions, beliefs and cultural values. Also referred to as the Iroquois Confederacy or Six Nations, the Haudenosaunee consist of the Mohawk, Oneida, Cayuga, Seneca, Onondaga and Tuscarora Nations. At Onondaga, there are nine "clans" which are; wolf, turtle, beaver, snipe, heron, deer, eel, bear, and hawk.

Please be aware of the inconsistent spelling of family names over the years: Scanandoah, Shenendoah, Schenendoah, Shenaudoah, etc. Memorials are entered as the names appear on the grave markers.
