About Us

Williamsburg Memorial Park was established in 1962 and built on the historic plantation of Benjamin Stoddert Ewell, the 16th president of the College of William & Mary. We’re located just 15 minutes from Colonial Williamsburg on 41 acres of beautifully manicured property, surrounded by a natural forest.

Our park features a traditional English design that’s reminiscent of the colonial gardens that once adorned the grand estates of the 18th century. Upon arrival, a long winding driveway gently guides you from our discreet, wooded entranceway to a lush green open space featuring stately trees, manicured shrubs, and a bouquet of seasonal colors.

Unlike other cemeteries in Richmond, Norfolk, and Newport News, Williamsburg Memorial Park is not owned by a large corporation. Instead, we are a nonprofit, community cemetery operated by a small staff of dedicated professionals. As such, we all get to wear a lot of hats, but that’s actually a good thing. It means that no matter who you speak with, you’ll get the answers you need–fast.

Our lower overhead also means that were consistently one of the most affordable cemeteries in the area. Contact us today to find out why thousands of families have entrusted us with their loved ones final resting place.

Am I allowed to sell my property?

Yes, but as the property owner, you are responsible for advertising and setting the price. You may also give your space(s) to other family members, donate them to a charitable organization, or give someone “permission to use” the space.

How do I request maintenance?

Although we generally do a great job of maintaining our cemetery, and the individual lots within in it, we occasionally miss something because of the shear size of the park. If you see something that needs to be addressed, simply fill out our Contact Form and select Lot Maintenance, or call our office at 757-565-2006. Be sure to include your lot number (if known) and contact information.
