The five questions to ask any cemetery — what to get in writing, line by line. We'll email it, with the printed guide for your area.
Free. Nothing goes to any cemetery — it's just the checklist.
How it works
You're allowed to know your options before you sign.
Without a plan, your family decides everything in forty-eight hours — the cemetery, the funeral home, the cost — with no way to know what you wanted.
Own plots you won't use? If you moved away or plans changed, tell us and we'll help you find out your options for selling them. Tell us about your plots →
A Jewish funeral home arranges the tahara, a shomer and the burial in keeping with Jewish tradition, and works with the cemetery and the rabbi. Customs vary between families and communities. Ask any home for its General Price List; each keeps its own number.

The Jewish cemeteries in this guide nearest each town, closest first (straight-line miles). Where a family can be buried depends on who holds the plot, so confirm with the cemetery's office.
What plots cost near Cincinnati: what cemeteries have told families →
No. Families never pay, and asking never obligates you to buy anything.
Where you're looking, how many plots, and anything that matters to you. It takes two minutes, with no account.
Right away. We'll be in touch to understand what you're looking for and get started, and you'll usually have answers by the next day.
Yes. Tell us when you ask, and we'll ask each cemetery about its rules and tell you which ones welcome your family.
Some cemeteries require it, and many don't. We ask and tell you which is which.
Yes. You can ask on their behalf, and the answers come to you.

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.
1 Jewish funeral home is documented in the region: Weil Kahn Funeral Home in Cincinnati. 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.
Settle it now, so your children never have to guess.
A place you chose, near the people you love, with the details settled and written down. You'll be the one who took care of it, so your family won't have to.
