The Princeton Cemetery has made efforts to digitize available records from its over 265 years of operations. This interactive map and interment record may be used to assist inquiries about specific lots. Due to the passage of time (including a fire in or about 1900), the database is not to be considered a complete or official record and is intended only as a helpful offering to the community. The contents of this website are not legal representations and should not be relied upon in any manner as a legal or otherwise binding record.
By using this digital map, you acknowledge that neither the Princeton Cemetery or Nassau Presbyterian Church are liable for any misrepresentations, inaccuracies, harm or injury resulting from use of the database. These records are uploaded approximately monthly, so interments from recent weeks may not be available.
- Use the link below to open the interactive map.
- Use the pull-down arrow in the search box to choose whether to search by name or location.
- If searching by name, enter the name of the person whose interment record you are interested in. Type in the last name followed by a comma, then the first name. Select the name from the drop down menu that appears.
- If searching by location, enter Map – Section – Lot – Grave. Note that Section must be at least 2 digits and lot must be at least 3 digits. If you are searching using an older deed, you may need to contact us for assistance as some of the numbering conventions had to be adapted for this digital map.
- If you are in the cemetery, you may use the Google Maps link to get a pin on the location of the grave. Use the pin but do not click on Directions as that will try to direct you to public roads and walkways.
- At times the spelling of a surname varies even within a family.
- Spaces in names will show up in the search and sort differently. For example, searching for McDonald/Mc Donald, MacDonald/Mac Donald or VanDyke/Van Dyke (with and without spaces) will each yield different results.
