Oakwood Cemetery, Historic cemetery in Fort Worth, United States
The 62-acre burial ground stretches along Grand Avenue, featuring thousands of monuments and gravestones across rolling hills near Trinity River.
John Peter Smith deeded the initial 20 acres to Fort Worth in 1879 when the original Pioneers Rest Cemetery reached capacity.
The cemetery includes three distinct sections: New City Cemetery for white burials, Trinity Cemetery for African-American burials, and Calvary Cemetery for Catholic burials.
The cemetery grounds at 701 Grand Avenue remain open daily for visitors to explore the monuments and research local genealogical connections.
The cemetery contains Bartenders' Row, a dedicated section for bartenders who worked in Fort Worth's historical district during the late 1800s.
