VITAL STATISTICS
GYPSUM HILL CEMETERY
Gypsum Hill Cemetery is owned and under the control of the City of
Salina. All receipts collected from the sale of lots and from all sources
are applied on the upkeep and beautifying of the grounds. If at any time
the receipts are not sufficient, the City must according to law, levy a tax
for the support of the cemetery, so there will always be a positive guarantee
that the cemetery will be perpetual. The lot owners have the privilege of
Placing any style of monument on their lots they may desire, or can build
private mausoleums. The rules of the cemetery are very liberal and are
made for the benefit of the lot owners who have a voice in the management
just the same as in any other part of the city government.
A complete water system has been installed, and city water is availab'e
to all parts of the grounds.
The price of lots is very reasonable; the full size lots, 18x30 are priced
at $150.00 and $140.00; half lots 18x15, $80.00 and $75.00. The half
lots are sold mostly, as this will accommodate about eight burials, and room
for family monument.
There is located in the cemetery the HILLCREST MEMORIAL
MAUSOLEUM, with 257 crypts and a number of private rooms. Also a
number of private mausoleums have been constructed.
At the request of a large number of lot owners the city has established
a perpetual care fund. Any lot owner can, if they so desire, place a deposit
of money which is placed in the Gypsum Hill Lot Owners Endowment Fund
for the perpetual care of the lot. The minimum amount is $100 for a full
lot, $75 for half lot and $50 for a quarter lot. There are a large number of
lot owners taking advantage of this plan, and no doubt in a few years the
majority will have the matter of care of their plot of ground forever settled.
The money so collected is invested in government bonds and the interest
only is used for the upkeep of said lots.
