Omena Hillcrest Cemetery
Memorial Guide

Click here to view a 600+page guide of the graves at the Hillcrest Cemetery in Omena. Researched and published by Thomas A. Thomas and donated to the Omena Historical Society as a research tool for generations to come.

Sadly, Thomas A. Thomas died on February 11, 2022, the day after this was posted. We are very thankful for his research and his efforts to produce this guide. God speed Tom.
