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.

The original St. Joseph Cemetery is located at the corner of Dexter Town Hall and Quigley Roads in Dexter. The growth of the parish was requiring a larger cemetery. By 1870, a new Catholic cemetery was established on Baker Road, just south of the Village of Dexter, to accommodate the increasing needs of the parish. The new Saint Joseph Cemetery was consecrated on October 1, 1870, the land having been donated by parishioner John Costello, after he had purchased it from Mr. F. Wygant. The five acres were enclosed by a white picket fence, with hitching posts in front and a crucifix in the center.
