CEMETERY MANAGEMENT
Daggitt & Mooney
The Supervisor and other members of the Board and Clerk, also are the Township Cemetery Board, and responsible for managing two cemeteries, Daggitt (corner of Lake Cook Road and St. Johns Avenue) and Mooney (Ridge Road near Deerfield Road), both in Highland Park.
Both cemeteries became Township-managed properties only as recently as well into the second half of the 20th century. They were each originally private family-owned cemeteries.
As our research project on the histories progresses, we will be adding to this page. Talk of the Township has an article giving some background, particularly on Mooney.
We are very interested in involving volunteers to help us with improving the records.
Do let us know by contacting the Supervisor's Office if you have personal information related to the cemeteries, and check back soon to see what we report!
