(M) Until 1819 the only cemetery associated with St. Joseph Cathedral was known as Our Lady of Sorrows Cemetery and took its name from the original name of the parish, established in 1792 when Baton Rouge was still a Spanish colony. This original cemetery was behind the present Cathedral on land now covered by North Street, between Fourth and Fifth Streets. On June 9, 1819,George Garig donated a cemetery for parishioners in the southern portion of the parish, known as the Old Catholic Cemetery, and now known as the Highland Road Cemetery. By 1824, the original cemetery on North Street which had been in operation since Baton Rouge's first days had become too small, and the Board of Trustees of the church began looking around for another burial ground. They purchased four arpents of ground for the new cemetery. A small corner was enclosed with fence rails, and several funerals had already taken place in the new burial ground. Thus 1824 is the date officially given as the beginning of St. Joseph Catholic Cemetery. The location, between North and Main Streets where it stands today, was a half mile outside the city limits of the time on what was known as the Comite Road. When it was first opened, many families who had relatives and ancestors buried in the old Spanish cemetery moved the remains to the new one.
