Located at the junction of Ham Lane and Armstrong Road, (between Lodi and Stockton in San Joaquin County, California.

Live Oak Cemetery started about 1860, under the jurisdiction of the Methodist Church, and at one time there was a nice little chapel there for services. It was used until around 1904-1905. Fires in the abandoned cemetery destroyed many of the wooden markers over the years. After many years some of the remains were removed to other cemeteries.

Some of the graves were removed in 1987, cremated and buried in the Lodi Memorial Cemetery, on Pine Street in Lodi, San Joaquin Co., California, then buried in 1998, for what reason the burials were delayed, I have not determined. These listings have and asterisk * at the end of each entry. There is still lack of information about the demise of this cemetery and removal of the remains.

After the removal of the graves in 1987, a home was built at the location of the old cemetery.
