A Rich History Rooted in Community

Waterloo Elmwood Cemetery was founded by a few local families who desired a quiet and respectful place for their loved ones. Over time, their vision became a nonprofit cemetery that now serves the broader Waterloo community.

Many of the city’s earliest residents, including members of the Leavitt family, are buried at Elmwood. Walking through the cemetery offers a glimpse into the area’s past and the people who helped shape it.

We invite you to explore Elmwood Cemetery and discover the deep roots that connect our community through generations.
