Oakdale is the second cemetery to serve Marysville.  It was extablished on April 11, 1879 by the Marysville Village Council and originaly consisted of just over thirty-nine acres that had been purchased from J. C. Dynes and his wife Providence.  By 1969 the cemetery had expanded to nearly fifty-seven acres.  Transfer of the bodies from the old cemetery began in 1893 and continued sporadically until 1903 or 1904 when the last bodies were moved to Oakdale. To learn more about the cemetery visit the city of Marysville site at: Oakdale Cemetery.

Items enclosed in brackets ( [ ] ) provide additional information not found on the grave stone. Grave locations that contain Section #, Row #, Lot # are taken from the published Oakdale cemetery readings; those locations indicating Section, Lot # and location within the lot are exact location within the cemetery.
