Welcome to Groton Rural Cemetery

Nestled above the charming village of Groton, New York, Groton Rural Cemetery offers 24 acres of serene, rolling hills and breathtaking panoramic views. Established by the New York State Legislature in 1858, our cemetery is not only a resting place for loved ones but also a historic landmark cherished by the community for generations.

The Groton Rural Cemetery Association, a dedicated group of volunteers, works tirelessly to maintain the beauty and tranquility of our grounds. Their commitment to preserving this sacred space is as strong today as it was at the turn of the 20th century. We invite you to visit and experience the peaceful ambiance that our cemetery offers.

Our Trustees, serving four-year terms, generously contribute their time and talents to ensure the cemetery remains a place of reverence and respect. We encourage you to thank them for their invaluable efforts when you have the chance. For transparency and accountability, we provide access to our Financial Statements and other pertinent information on our website.

As the cost of maintenance rises, we rely on the support of our community more than ever. Our GRC Helping Hands program is an excellent way for you to get involved, whether through volunteering or donating. Every contribution helps us continue our mission to keep Groton Rural Cemetery a place of solace and remembrance.

For those interested, we provide detailed information on our rates, as well as our rules and regulations, to ensure our cemetery remains in pristine condition. Thank you for your support and understanding as we work together to uphold the dignity and history of Groton Rural Cemetery.
