Albany Rural Cemetery

A huge, peaceful cemetery.

The cemetery, so beautiful been coming here for so many Years only thing they just have to stay up on the maintenance and cutting the grass.

Come visit president Chester A Arthur here. The cemetery is somewhat big but not kept up at all which is really sad.

Very beautiful cemetery in menands ny that is the size of central park in manhattan as it will take you all day to see all the graves here. There are multiple entrances and exits here, st agnes cemetery next door and a Jewish cemetery next door. Heads up, a train crossing comes through here and it is active, the owner lives on site, menands police dept patrols here regularly, and do not come here after dark as it is easy to get lost, the police will arrest you if you are caught by them in the dark, coyotes in the woods and other wild animals, stay on the paths and roadways at all times, multiple roadways that have collapsed in this cemetery including a road in the middle ridge section next to the burden family vault, steep dropoffs here too!

We had heard that the 21st President of the United States was buried here. The office staff was helpful and gave us a map of the cemetery and we drove right to it. This place is huge and some of the headstones are quite elaborate.
