One hundred years after Mt. Wood Cemetery was established, recognizing the future needs of the Jewish Community, twelve men met to acquire ground for a new cemetery. Thirty acres of farm land was purchased on Middle Creek Road on November 30, 1953 and the cemetery is known as Jewish Memorial Park.

Both cemeteries are managed by the Temple Shalom Cemetery Committee. It is a responsibility not taken lightly. The cemeteries are cared for with the highest integrity for those tiered on the grounds and their descendants. 

For more information, please call the Temple office at (304)233-4870 and a member of the Cemetery Committee will return your call.
