EverJewish documents 8 Jewish cemeteries within about 30 miles of central Providence, across 7 towns — 6 standalone Jewish cemeteries and 1 Jewish section within larger cemeteries. The nearest towns are Providence, Central Falls, Warwick, Attleboro.
No cemetery in this region has yet documented public plot sales on EverJewish. Most pages still say "details not yet confirmed" — call the office, and ask about membership as a path in.
Often within a day or two. What sets the timing: the cemetery's schedule, Shabbat and Jewish holidays (Jewish cemeteries generally don't hold burials then), the death certificate and burial permit, and family who need to travel. Waiting for close family is common. The funeral home will tell you the earliest time that works.
2 Jewish funeral homes are documented in the region: Shalom Memorial Chapel in Cranston; Memorial Funeral Homes in Newport. Each page lists what is documented about tahara, shomer, Shabbat and holiday practice, and what remains an open question.
Whether plots are currently available and to whom (members, the public, or pre-sold only); who may be buried there, including interfaith and section rules; costs in writing — plot, opening and closing, perpetual care, monument; and which funeral home the cemetery works with. Every cemetery on EverJewish can be asked directly from its page, and questions marked "planning ahead" carry no urgency.
Tell us once what you're looking for — how many plots, which section, your timeframe — and the Jewish cemeteries near you answer on EverJewish: availability, what's required, and pricing with payment plans. Offices that have joined answer in their own words; for the rest, your page shows what is on record and their number. No calls until you choose.
EverJewish documents eight Jewish cemeteries within 30 miles of Providence, Rhode Island. Six are standalone Jewish cemeteries, and one is a Jewish section within a larger cemetery. These cemeteries are located across seven towns in Rhode Island and Massachusetts, including two in Providence itself, and one each in Central Falls, Warwick, Attleboro, Woonsocket, Taunton, and Fall River. Several are affiliated with congregations. Two funeral homes serving Jewish families are also documented in the region.
For two of these cemeteries, EverJewish has compiled detailed pages from their own public websites. However, none of the eight cemeteries has yet directly confirmed its information with EverJewish. Families should contact cemetery offices to verify current details, confirm plot availability, and discuss specific needs. Cemetery offices are welcome to confirm or update their information with EverJewish at no cost.
Because availability has not yet been confirmed for any of these eight cemeteries, it is important to reach out directly to each office. Staff can answer questions about open sections, religious requirements, and other particulars. The two funeral homes in the region may also be able to provide guidance about local Jewish burial options. Confirming details in advance helps families make informed decisions during a difficult time.
EverJewish is an independent reference documenting Jewish funeral homes and cemeteries in the United States. Free for families; the record is never for sale. No rankings, no paid placement (how we're funded). We never sell family information.
