A historic and well-kept cemetery with helpful staff.

I had my mother and brother buried today. The ceremony was very nice along with the priest who assisted us. Making prior arrangements for the burial was very easy with the help of the people in the office. Since I don't get to visit too often due the distance from my house I decided I would like to visit the grave site of my maternal grandmother and grandfather. I asked in the office and since I didn't have the exact date of death or date of birth of either i was told they couldn't locate them. I did know approximately when my grandmother passed away but was told that wouldn't help. Turns out that by looking on line myself I found her grave site without my having an exact date of death or birth. It was just that simple. The only issue we had locating the sites were that they were covered by old leaves and overgrown grass. It was obvious that the entire area had not been cut in a very long time. Myself and my family found that to be very upsetting.

Rough terrain. Difficult to get to desired locations. Older adults and people with leg and ankle problems beware. Would not allow older adults to use restrooms. No public restrooms.

The cemetery is one of the oldest cemeteries around well kept and jewel of the DC area.

Do they have a urn vault?

Hello Ms.Saunders you will never really see a urn vault. They are normally only seen the times that you are having a Service for your loved ones. So with that being said you would have to call the cemetery, or any other cemetery to get one. The way it is set up at Mount Olivet now unless you already have a spot over there paid for or family space they were not be any new burials.

I needed to find out whether or not my brother (Eric Hardy) burial plot was purchased with an extra plot on the top. My mother seems to believe there was but since she is up in age now, she can't quite remember. Is there anyone that can help?
