In Louisville from US Hwy 65S drive west onto US Hwy 150, turning
south onto 7th Ave Rd and continue to Arcade Ave. Cemetery will
be on the east or left side of the street.
This cemetery started out about 1860 as the Schardein family
burial site, with other Jewish families living in the area also
using it. The family held the property until the Louisville Crematory
and Cemeteries, Incorporated purchased it, in the early 1960s.
The circumstances are not known.
There are no well kept records available for a long time. Recently
some records were found and they were computerized, but do not
appear to be accurate.
This record appears to have multiple listings for the same person
in many cases. As much as possible these have been removed. There
are several listings left which appear to be lot owners, since
there is no actual date or burial site listed. Those which either
tell us no identifiable information were placed into a Miscellaneous
listing. (editor's note)
This is a copy of the records from the Louisville Crematory and
cemeteries, Inc. compiled in May of 2006.
