One of the more outstanding features in the Cemetery is the Dean Mausoleum, which is the resting place of one of the most prominent shoe factory owners and his family. Other wealthy shoe manufacturers and their families also were buried here including the Lokers, Bents, Bryants and Griffins. The Town Tomb was strategically located at the end of
road leading into the Cemetery just opposite the Bowl. It was a receiving tomb used during the winter when the digging of graves was not possible. This Tomb was used well into the twentieth century until year around burials were common practice.
This cemetery sits on 16.88 acres. The earliest death date is ca. 1820s.
The Massachusetts Historical Commission refers to this cemetery in MACRIS as WAY.803 Lakeview Cemetery.
