The Old Richmond Cemetery was the first cemetery in Richmond, Madison County, Kentucky. It existed from the 1790s until 1890. The last burial there occurred in the early 1850s.The Old Richmond Cemetery became disused and abandoned after the present Richmond Cemetery opened in 1856. In December 1890 a number of remains and gravestones were moved to Section G, Lot 8, of the Richmond Cemetery. The site of the Old Richmond Cemetery was then used a rock quarry and eventually re-developed.
