Story

St. Peters' Catholic Cemetery is located just south of Tonnelle Circle near Croxton Yard in Jersey City, New Jersey and is administered by Holy Name Cemetery.The first burial at this cemetery is said to have been on June 9, 1849 prior to the land being deeded to the cemetery association. This cemetery is the oldest in the Archdiocese of Newark. The cemetery is associated with St. Peter's Church which was founded in 1829 in Jersey City. The 4.92acre plot of land is said to have been purchased from Walter Van Winkle in September 1849 by twelve men who formed an association. In early November of that year promotional lots were for sale. A 9ft by 10ft section cost $15.00. In 1875 several graves were relocated thanks to the Legislature for a railroad right of way. The last burial at this cemetery is said to have been circa 2003. The cemetery does not have any plots for sale.

It is such an honor to be able to deliver to a cemetery that shares our Catholic values. We consider it a pleasure to work with those who share our faith and understanding of what our Catholic families are feeling during this difficult time. Thank you to the St. Peter's staff for your support on this journey.

I first visited St. Peter's Cemetery when my neighbor fathers died from childhood he was like a second father I thought it was a beautiful Cemetery that was full of flowers not a dreary place where there are no flowers when my father-in-law passed away my husband wasn't sure where to bury him I said let's bury him at st.At Peter's it's so pretty there was always lots of nice flowers looks like loved ones come often so that's what we did we also bought my mother-in-law's at the same time after their passing Roy told me the plot next to them was available for me and my husband when the time comes we went ahead and purchased it not knowing what was in our future. In 2008 our daughter died of cancer the worst time of our lives knowing her grandparents were buried there and are plot was available we went ahead and decided to bury her next to them so she wouldn't be alone and moved our to one that was available After her death I go to the cemetery often and make sure that her grave site and my mother-in-law's and my neighbors always had flowers so they know that they are loved still and thought off daily In December I went to the cemetery on December 2nd which is my daughter's birthday I always put her Christmas tree up on her birthday and decorate her grave site with Christmas at that time there was a note posted about all decorations and flowers being taken down I didn't understand since it was the beginning of Christmas how they would not let you keep your Christmas decorations up for the whole month of December I went inside the office and ask them about it saying today is her birthday and this is something I have done since she passed away and they said well you can go ahead and decorate today come back on Sunday pick it all up then wait a week then bring everything back and do it again I did not understand this way of thinking they said they were having trouble with families bringing too many big plants to their loved ones and I understand if you would clean the cemetery like once every 6 months but every month every other month is just ridiculous it is hard enough to lose your love ones but not feeling welcome to go to the cemetery to bring them flowers and spend time with them and make their grave site look like you want is a violation I have not been to the cemetery for a while now because it is so depressing it's bad enough to know that you love your child is laying there. It's the only thing that mothers and fathers have left to do for their daughter and sons is to bring them flowers and sit with them .No one wants to go to the cemetery to an open flower pot that has no flowers in it no love no memories no trinkets of something that you want your daughter or son to still have I am so sorry that she is buried there now and if I had the opportunity and didn't feel bad about it I would move everybody to another Cemetery where you able to keep your grave site looking loved visited and not forgotten I hope this gives you some thought of how parents feel about this decision to clean so often and you take in consideration the feelings of the parents that have lost a child and want flowers at the grave site at all times please rethink this clearing of the cemetery so often I think if you would ask families we could come to an agreement where both sides are happy and you feel welcomed again at the cemetery to sit with your child and look at the beautiful flowers that are all throughout the cemetery instead of empty flower pots with nothing in them it is so sad 😭 💔 My phone number is on file if u want to talk about it!!!! Update November 2016 went to the cemetery today to give my daughter some flowers so happy to see that the cleanup has been changed to 4 times a year thank you so much for considering how parents feel💜💛💝😇

Both of my grandparents are there at st. Peters! Its a nice cemetery. . However the lady answering phones this morning was rather rude and snoody. Wouldn't want to deal with her face to face. I spoke to Randy and and he was awesome. He took the time to answer all my questions and was understanding. Thank you Randy!
