The Minnesota Genealogical Society (
visit link) reports that the cemetery was established in 1873 but the burial records begin in 1882. A plaque on the mortuary tells that the Oakdale Cemetery Association began in 1884 and they erected the mortuary in 1923 at a cost of $8,500.
There are thousands of graves here.
Google Maps shows Calvary Cemetery is also located here but according to the Minnesota Genealogical Society, Calvary Cemetery is on the grounds of Mount St. Benedict Academy which is on the east side of Crookston about 1.5 miles away.
