Description : The cemetery is the oldest cemetery in Minneapolis. The cemetery was established as Minneapolis Cemetery (Layman’s Cemetery), a privately owned burial ground, in 1858 by Martin and Elizabeth Layman, and was closed to new burials by the City of Minneapolis in 1919. From its original size, it was expanded to 10 acres in 1860 and eventually to 27 acres and held 27,000 burials. In 1928, the city condemned the cemetery, assumed ownership, and changed the name to the Minneapolis Pioneers and Soldiers Memorial Cemetery. After its closure, about 7000 burials were moved to other locations.
