Redding Memorial Park was originally established in 1879 as an International Order of Odd Fellows (I.O.O.F.) cemetery. There are currently approximately 5,635 internments here. There is also a veterans cemetery potion containing graves of service members going back to the Civil War. The grounds are pretty-well maintained and the large cemetery still accepts new internments.

Amazingly, for a cemetery as large as this one in a good-sized city, there is no official website.
Location Details:
The only proof that this cemetery was an I.O.O.F. cemetery is from a bronze plaque located at the front entrance. I don't know when this cemetery officially changed its name to the current.


Date of construction: 1879
