The Barre Town Cemetery Division maintains three
cemeteries. The largest is the Wilson Cemetery located in Lower
Websterville. The others are the Maplewood Cemetery located at
Farwell and Nichols Roads and the West Hill Cemetery located on
Perry Road. Lots in the Wilson and Maplewood cemeteries may be
purchased.
The Sexton and a small group of employees maintain
the three town cemeteries from late April through October. Burials
are performed from about May 1 (when ground conditions permit) to
October 31 (again depending on weather conditions). Vault storage
is provided at the Wilson Cemetery. Lots are available for traditional
burials, cremains, and mausoleum sites.
A 5-member commission oversees operation of the
cemeteries. For information about the Cemetery Commission, refer
to the Boards & Commissions
section of this web site.
There are three private cemeteries in town. The
St. Sylvester’s Church operates a large cemetery across the street
from the Wilson Cemetery. Lots are available. There are old, small,
private cemeteries at the end of Sherman Drive and off of Averill
Road.
The executive committee of the Flags for Veterans organization is seeking the help in verifying individuals buried in Barre Town and Barre City cemeteries are in fact veterans. To see the list and more information click here.
