| Additional Comments | Woodlawn Cemetery was established as a non-profit, non-sectarian cemetery by Henry S. Baird, H. Eugene Eastman, Charles D. Robinson, Daniel W. King, Timothy O. Howe, Nathan Goodell, Frank Desnoyers, and Burley Follett in 1856. However, the burial grounds were not officially purchased by the organization until 1867. The seventy plots comprising the original burial ground were located in the City of Green Bay’s Baird Park, but were relocated to Woodlawn Cemetery in 1867. The Woodlawn Cemetery Chapel, a Ranch style chapel, was constructed during the mid-twentieth century in the cemetery. |
