Oak Hill Cemetery, cemetery in Evansville, Indiana, United States

Oak Hill Cemetery is a 175-acre rural cemetery in Evansville, Indiana, of which less than 120 acres are platted for interments. Its single entrance on the south side is a 1901 Mission Revival gateway by Harris & Shopbell, with red barrel-tile roof and coffered soffit, reached by a 365-foot drive from Virginia Street. Curving one-lane asphalt drives follow the hill's two-humped contour, and two man-made reflecting pools lie within the grounds.

On 12 August 1850 the Evansville City Council appointed a committee to replace the old burying grounds at Mulberry and Fifth Streets, and chose a 56-acre site called "Lost Hill" about a mile and a half beyond the city limits. Lots went on sale in February 1853, and the first burial was two-year-old Ellen Johnson on 18 February 1853, ten days after the council named the site Oak Hill. Later purchases up to 1924 brought the cemetery to 175 acres. It holds over 500 Union troops, 24 Confederate soldiers and 94 civilians who died in Civil War conflicts; the Union sections gained federal recognition in 1898.

The name "Oak Hill" was chosen by the City Council in February 1853, ten days before the first burial, that of two-year-old Ellen Johnson. The grounds were shaped over eighty years by superintendents John S. Goodge (1853–1897) and William Halbrook (1898–1932), a former florist; many mature trees likely descend from their planting.

The cemetery lies along Highway 41, with a single entrance gate on its south side reached by a 365-foot drive from Virginia Street. Inside, the drives are asphalted one-lane paths; the northern tract bordering Morgan Avenue is farm-leased and not platted for interments. Less than 120 of the 175 acres are laid out for graves.

The Johnson family island in the oblong lake holds the grave of Edward Mead Johnson, who founded Johnson & Johnson and later Mead Johnson Nutrition Company; his round colonnaded granite monument was erected in 1934. The lake lies to the left of the gateway in the Western Addition, with temple-style stone mausoleums along its banks.
