The cemeteries of Avon Park

Summary

Avon Park buries its dead in three places. Bougainvillea Cemetery on Highway 27 is the town’s own: ten acres that Oliver Crosby laid out and gave to the town when the first maps were drawn, where a three-month-old child was buried in 1888 and where Crosby himself was brought back to lie in 1932.[maxwell-1976][fg-stenstrom] The Lakeside Historical Cemetery on Cummings Avenue, also called Lincoln Garden, is the Black community’s burial ground; its oldest marked graves date from 1928, it has never gone out of use, and since 2013 a nonprofit board has been restoring it.[fg-lakeside][sunbiz-lakeside][hns-2025-05-12] Lakeview Memorial Gardens on Memorial Drive, a privately owned park cemetery on Lake Denton, made its first burial on 2 April 1969.[lakeview-about] The Pinecrest Cemetery sometimes listed with them is at Sebring.[bg-pinecrest]

Crosby’s cemetery, 1888-1932

Evidence: corroborated for the first burial and Crosby’s; the rest rests on the 1976 town history.

The cemetery came before the undertakers. Crosby wrote that there were none in Avon Park, and the town history records from his account that the first burial, in 1888, was of Hulda Stenstrom, three months old, “near an oak tree on the East side of the cemetery, which Mr. Crosby had already laid out and donated to be a cemetery for the community.” He had laid it out “with a small circular park near the East side of the lot,” and it was near that park that he was himself buried.[maxwell-1976] The child’s stone is still there: Find a Grave records Hulda Stenstrom, born 13 July 1888, died 6 October 1888, in Bougainvillea Cemetery.[fg-stenstrom] An online memorial for an “Ernest Bartlett” records a death year of 1884, before the town was settled, but field transcription notes by Grace Younglove Hudson record: “Ernest Bartlett died 1984 ? age 40 ? Believed John 3. 16. Gravesite Details: stone is difficult to read.”[fg-bartlett] The eroded stone represents a turn-of-the-century or later Bartlett family burial rather than a pre-settlement grave.

The first winters were hard on the graveyard. In the fall and winter of 1889-90 there were thirteen deaths, “due to the fact that too many came who were in the last stages of consumption,” among them a young man drowned in a sailing accident on Lake Verona. Carpenters made the coffins as they were needed and the women covered them in black cloth, usually at Crosby’s expense, and with no minister in the town Crosby read the service himself.[maxwell-1976] A few unmarked graves, the book adds, “are silent reminders that some who came never returned to their former homes.”[maxwell-1976]

Only six marked headstones from the nineteenth century and settlement era (through 1901) survive in the cemetery. Following infant Hulda Stenstrom (October 1888), the earliest surviving adult marker is that of Anna Daugherty (1819–1892, inscribed “It is well with her soul”),[fg-anna-daugherty] followed by William F. Smith (1823–1893),[fg-smith] Sarah Wheeler Abbott (1826–1898),[fg-abbott] Elizabeth Ross (1829–1899),[fg-ross] and James W. Woodruff (1819–1901).[fg-woodruff] (A seventh grave often catalogued among nineteenth-century child pioneer deaths, Clayton A. Denmark, was created by a 2009 volunteer clerical misreading of a granite flush marker inscribed “NOV 29 1982” as “1892”; Denmark lived to age ninety-eight and served as Atlantic Coast Line Railroad station agent in Avon Park alongside his wife Lulah Inez Denmark.)[fg-denmark][maxwell-1976] These early burials closely mirror the pioneer kinship networks recorded in the 1900 Federal Census for Avon Park, where the Daugherty, Woodruff, and Bell homesteads clustered in adjacent dwellings.[census-1900-desoto-ap]

The stones of the following years mark prominent leaders of the settlement. Clark Darwin Knapp, 1850 to 1902, was vice president of the Avon Park Transportation Company and an incorporator of the Church of the Redeemer.[fg-knapp] Elizabeth J. Bibbins Goodell, born in New York in April 1852 and buried here in 1903,[fg-goodell] was the wife of rural mail carrier M. O. Goodell and the “Mrs. E. A. J. Goodell” of Avon Park whom a New York newspaper’s charitable column carried on its invalid list in 1902, asking readers to send her reading.[nyt-1902-03-03]

By 1906 the ground was in the care of an association. The Arcadia paper’s Avon Park column reported on 23 March 1906 that Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Butler had given “a good second-hand pump and well tubing to the Avon Park Cemetery Association, that a well may be driven in the cemetery to supply water for trees, shrubs and flowers planted there. A much needed improvement.”[dscn-1906-03-23] Two months earlier the same column had reported a funeral at the late home of the deceased on 25 January, the Rev. S. J. Townsend officiating, “and the interment was in the Avon Park cemetery. Nearly all our people by their attendance showed their respect for the character of the departed.”[dscn-1906-02-02]

Crosby died at a retirement home in Largo in 1932 and at his own request was brought back to Avon Park for burial in Bougainvillea Cemetery, “a ten acre lot he had given to the Town of Avon Park when the original maps were made.” On 4 July 1976 the town’s Bicentennial committees set a monument on his grave naming him the founder of Avon Park, the stone a gift of the Hart Memorials of Sebring.[maxwell-1976]

The Avon Park Cemetery Association is still the body that runs the cemetery. Although an informal association operated from at least March 1906, trustees formally incorporated under Florida law on 7 June 1990 as Avon Park Cemetery Association, Inc. (Document Number 703867).[sunbiz-cemetery-assoc-1990] The burying ground encompasses two contiguous county parcels—parcel A-21-33-28-010-0010-0000 (9.49 acres inside city limits) and parcel C-21-33-28-010-0011-0000 (0.51 acres unincorporated)—legally described as “BOUGAINVILLEA CEMETERY PB-3-PG 90 + PB 7 PG 41 ALL CEMETERY”, reflecting the original layout in Plat Book 3, Page 90 and additions in Plat Book 7, Page 41.[hcpao-bougainvillea-parcel-a] The Internal Revenue Service recognized the corporation as a tax-exempt cemetery company in November 1991; its 2025 return shows about $73,000 of revenue, almost all from services, a paid president and a groundskeeper, and net assets of about $545,000.[propublica-assoc] A separate Bougainvillea Cemetery Perpetual Care Trust, administered from Orlando and recognized in April 1992, held about $956,000 in 2023 and makes grants to the Association.[propublica-trust] Find a Grave indexes 5,013 memorials in the cemetery, at 591 US Highway 27.[fg-bougainvillea]

The undertakers

Evidence: corroborated. The early store accounts from the 1976 town history are corroborated by federal census schedules, vital statistics, corporate records, and Highlands County property assessments.

The mortuary trade grew up in the general mercantile stores. J. C. Burleigh kept a few caskets in his Lakeview Street grocery, the dearest at $150 and the cheapest at $50; Mr. Holt, who bought the store in 1912, kept them above the rafters and delivered them to the home by mule wagon, then drove the family to Bougainvillea Cemetery while the mourners walked; Captain Rae, who bought the store after Holt, found several of the old pointed-end caskets still stored there. Fred Smith bought Rae’s hardware business and funeral supplies in 1918, moved the hardware to the Hotel Jacaranda arcade, and sold the funeral supplies on to druggist and furniture dealer Dr. J. A. (Joe) Lander.[maxwell-1976]

Lloyd Correll became Avon Park’s first dedicated undertaker, operating for J. M. Stephenson in a small wooden building next to the post office; the first body he handled was that of his uncle, Gene Bristol.[maxwell-1976] Correll kept supplies at the back of his music store near the First National Bank, moved into the Arcade building across the street, and later conducted viewings from a residence on South Forest Street with the family upstairs and the parlor below.[maxwell-1976] The 1930 federal census confirms Correll’s profession, listing him on South Forest Street as an undertaker with his own funeral home.[census-correll-1930]

In 1929, Joe Lander leased the two-story home of pioneer settler William R. Reck on East Circle Street to Jack M. (J. M.) Stephenson—who had partnered in Sebring with embalmer J. Ross Blythe as Stephenson & Blythe and answered the 1926 Moore Haven hurricane relief call—for a dedicated funeral home.[maxwell-1976][stephenson-nelson-about] Stephenson bought the Reck property in 1932, and following Blythe’s death that year, assumed sole ownership.[maxwell-1976][stephenson-nelson-about] After World War II, stepson Marion H. Nelson and his wife Helen managed the home from 1945 to 1951.[stephenson-nelson-about] In 1955, the firm relocated the Reck house to the corner of North Verona Avenue and constructed a modern 6,715-square-foot brick mortuary at 111 East Circle Street (Highlands County Property Appraiser parcel A-22-33-28-010-0040-0030).[hcpao-circle-parcel] The firm traded successively as Scott-Stephenson-Smith, Stephenson-Nelson-Smith, and Stephenson-Nelson Funeral Home.[maxwell-1976][sunbiz-stephenson-nelson]

In 1948, Mr. and Mrs. Russell Mizell opened a second funeral parlor in their residence at South Lake Avenue and East Walnut Street, remodeling the structure to include a chapel and display room.[maxwell-1976] Mizell operated there until 1975, when he sold to the Florida Funeral Chapel, Inc., later Franklin’s Funeral Home.[maxwell-1976] James Earl Fountain (1941–2005), an Avon Park police officer, Realtor, and licensed mortician who incorporated Fountain Funeral Home in 1973, leased the former Mizell parlor briefly before opening a purpose-built 3,708-square-foot mortuary and chapel at 507 US Highway 27 North in 1975 (Highlands County Property Appraiser parcel A-21-33-28-010-0040-0011).[maxwell-1976][hcpao-fountain-parcel][sunbiz-fountain-fh][obit-james-fountain-2005] Fountain Funeral Home remains family-operated, regularly conducting interments at both Bougainvillea Cemetery and the historic Lakeside Historical Cemetery.[fountain-fh-about] A comprehensive lineage of the town’s mortuary history and early undertakers is detailed in The Undertakers and Funeral Homes of Avon Park, Gene Bristol, Lloyd Correll, and Pioneer Undertaking in Avon Park (1920–1930), The Archival Search for Gene Bristol’s Death Record and Vital Statistics (1918–1925), and The Marriage and Lineage of Lloyd Benson Correll and Virginia Loretta Drumm.

The Black community’s cemetery

Evidence: corroborated for the cemetery’s existence, age and character; single-source where attributed.

The town history says nothing of where Black Avon Park buried its dead, and the deed and newspaper record so far read says no more. The ground itself answers. At 1581 Cummings Avenue, south of the town, is a cemetery known as the Lakeside Historical Cemetery and also as the Lincoln Garden Cemetery, which the BillionGraves index describes as “a Historical Black Cemetery in use for many years.”[fg-lakeside][bg-lincoln] On Highlands County Property Appraiser rolls (parcel A-27-33-28-A00-0100-0000), ownership is recorded under “AFRICAN-AMERICAN CEMETERY” and legally described as “AFRICAN-AMERICAN CEMETERY TRACT DESC IN DB 79-PG 558 6.59 ACRES”, establishing that Deed Book 79, Page 558 bounded the 6.59-acre burial ground.[hcpao-lakeside-parcel] Find a Grave holds 777 memorials for it; the oldest deaths recorded on them are of 1928, 1930 and 1931, and the run is continuous from the 1930s.[fg-lakeside]

The marked graves clarify a long-standing community distinction. Among the markers is pioneer settler Cueller Phillip Peterson Sr., born at Bainbridge, Georgia, on 2 June 1888 and died at Tampa on 22 August 1967.[fg-peterson] The cemetery’s restoration board often commemorates the site as holding “the first African American born in Avon Park, Cuellar Peterson.”[hns-2025-03-10] That distinction belongs to the son, Cueller Phillip Peterson Jr., who was born at the Peterson family homestead at 904 South Pineland Avenue.[maxwell-1976][or-709-905-peterson-blackmon-1981] Cueller Jr. married first Hopewell School teacher Freddie Mae Gipson and later Beatrice Brown-Peterson (1942–2020), founder of the Avon Park Martin Luther King Jr. Walk, who is also interred at Lakeside.[obit-beatrice-peterson-2020]

The cemetery was still burying in 2024: “This is a unique cemetery in the state of Florida,” the board’s representative told the city’s redevelopment agency; “most of the African American cemeteries are dormant. In other words, they haven’t had a burial there in 10 years or more. This cemetery had a burial as recently as last year.”[hns-2025-05-12] A Florida not-for-profit corporation, Lakeside Historical Cemetery of Avon Park Inc., was formed on 6 February 2013, lapsed and was reinstated in September 2017, and has its principal address at the cemetery.[sunbiz-lakeside] Its board, under president Donald Gordon, approached the city in July 2024; the Community Redevelopment Agency’s advisory board awarded it $25,000 on 13 June 2024,[hns-2024-06-21] the agency’s board took up a funding request in August,[hns-2024-08-12] paid for a survey of the property that September, and in May 2025 voted money for lighting, a flagpole, a new sign on the fence and three waist-high story boards “to relay the story of how and why the predominantly African American cemetery was created.”[hns-2025-05-12] The Duke Energy Foundation gave $20,000 in March 2025 to match a state grant for cleaning, leveling and re-pouring the vaults; the board’s plans include repairing the wrought-iron fence that once surrounded the ground and bringing water and lighting to it, and it states that more than two dozen veterans, “some of them decorated war heroes,” lie there with the community’s civic, business and religious leaders.[hns-2025-03-10] Its full story is on its own page.

Lakeview Memorial Gardens, 1969

Evidence: corroborated.

The third cemetery is a private one. Lakeview Memorial Gardens, at 854 Memorial Drive, was the project of Robert E. Sherwood (1928–2015), a local contractor and developer (CEO of Sebring Shores Development, Inc.), laid out on twenty-five acres in an L-shape reaching toward Lake Denton, from which it took its name.[lakeview-about][obit-robert-sherwood-2015] Initially incorporated by Sherwood in 1968 (Document 329423), the enterprise dedicated Section One across 15.24 acres on 4 October 1968 under survey by W. Dale Thomas, which was approved by the Board of County Commissioners on 7 January 1969 and recorded in Plat Book 9, Page 11.[hc-plat-9-11] Its first burial, on 2 April 1969, was of Staff Sergeant Charles Wayne Jenkins (1940–1969) of Lake Placid, a combat correspondent with HHC, 1st Battalion, 5th Cavalry, 1st Cavalry Division (Airmobile) who died in Bien Hoa Province, South Vietnam on 19 March 1969 (Vietnam Veterans Memorial Panel 29W, Line 79).[lakeview-about][dcas-jenkins-1969][vvmf-jenkins-1969] Jenkins is commemorated at his gravesite every Memorial Day with a ceremonial 21-gun salute.[lakeview-about] Find a Grave, which indexes 6,508 memorials on the property, records Jenkins in Lot 2833; the scatter of earlier dates from 1942 forward are subsequent reinterments or memorial stones.[fg-lakeview][fg-lakeview-jenkins] Sherwood himself was interred at Lakeview in May 2015.[obit-robert-sherwood-2015] Operating with an on-site utility shop built in 1975, a brick arrangement office built in 1986, and the 2,001-crypt Chapel of Peace Mausoleum and committal chapel constructed in 1997, the facility is licensed as a cemetery under NorthStar Cemetery Services of Florida, LLC (Florida DFS License #F039415), coordinating mortuary arrangements and off-site cremations with regional directors and crematories rather than operating an on-site crematory retort.[hcpao-lakeview][fldfs-lakeview-f039415][lakeview-about] The enterprise was acquired in 1996 by Service Corporation International, merged into a limited liability company on 31 December 2002, and conveyed in December 2004 for $320,000 to Keatley Investments (Highlands County Official Records Book 1812, Page 1703), later operating under NorthStar Memorial Group (NorthStar Lakeview, LLC and NorthStar Cemetery Services of Florida, LLC) with local management led by Managing Partner Gina Smith.[sunbiz-329423][sunbiz-L02000030618][hcor-deed-1812-1703][sunbiz-M04000004253][sunbiz-M04000004100]

Not Avon Park’s

Lists of Avon Park cemeteries sometimes include a Pinecrest Cemetery with some 4,800 headstones. It is at 4400 Nelson Street, Sebring, and so are the Paupers Cemetery on Beck Avenue, the Arbuckle Creek Road Cemetery and the Lakeside Cemetery on Hudson Boulevard that the indexes list as “nearby.”[bg-pinecrest] The Fort Kissimmee Cemetery on the Air Force range, the burial ground of the settlement removed in 1942, is described on the Fort Kissimmee page.
