Odd Fellows Cemetery, Historical cemetery in North Philadelphia West, Pennsylvania, US.
The cemetery extended over 32 acres between Diamond Street and between 22nd and 25th Street, featuring an Egyptian Revival gatehouse with brown stone architecture.
Established in 1849 by the Odd Fellows fraternal organization, the cemetery initially contained 277 Civil War soldiers who were later moved to Philadelphia National Cemetery.
The cemetery held the remains of notable figures including painter Manuel Azadigian, U.S. Mint assistant engraver Peter Cross, and novelist George Lippard.
The cemetery grounds were acquired in 1951 by Philadelphia authorities, with most remains transferred to Mount Peace Cemetery and Lawnview Memorial Park.
In 2013, construction workers discovered 28 graves under a playground built in 1954, revealing that not all remains were properly relocated during the cemetery transfer.
