Holy Sepulchre Cemetery is located at 4912 Leavenworth Street. The cemetery was founded on June 1, 1873. The cemetery rises to a pretty substantial hill in the middle, where there is a circular turnaround, and has a nice view of lower mid-town Omaha.
Holy Sepulchre has many of the prominent founding Omahans in it; Forest Lawn has some of the rest, and Prospect Hill holds the majority of the oldest. However, unlike FL, Holy Sepulchre has been vandalized to a greater extent, and all of the mausoleums have been damaged, some quite severely. John Albert McShane (1850-1923), congressman from 1887-1889, is buried here.
