AMERICAN CEMETERY Natchitoches, LA, USA The American Cemetery is situated on the former site of Fort St. Jean Baptiste, established by Juchereau de St. Denis in 1714, located on Second Street in Natchitoches, La. The oldest marked burial seems to be that of Marie Anne D'Artigaux (February 26, 1797), marked with a large iron cross whose engraving is barely legible at this time. According to the abstracted records of the Catholic Church Registers of the French and Spanish Post of St. Jean Baptiste des Natchitoches in Louisiana: 1729-1803 (published by Elizabeth Shown Mills, 1977) there are numerous early burials documented in the 'parish cemetery'. It is believed that parish cemetery' refers to the present site of the American Cemetery, or in this general area, near the old fort. The cemetery has graveled car paths and is easily accessible. Heavily wooded and expansive, the cemetery is a pleasant and serene place as well as an historical reminder of those who have gone before. There are approximately 1400 marked burials. The American Cemetery is located on Second Street near the entrance to Northwestern State University. Located on a rolling hill, the cemetery has many shade trees, flowering trees and shrubs. Graveled driveways wind throughout the cemetery. Parking is also available across the street, courtesy of the nearby Holy Cross Church. A number of broken markers with incomplete data were located in this cemetery. A listing of that data is included at the end. There are also many vaults or bricked gravesites with no markers at this time, due possibly to vandalism. Earlier catalogings of the cemetery might include some of those markers.
