About these numbers

Photos

Westford's Russian Cemetery first came into use in 1918, primarily to accommodate burials of immigrant mill workers from that country. Significant numbers of Russian immigrants began to arrive in Westford during the first decade of the 20th century as the result of recruiting efforts by mill company agents in Belarus as well as other regions of Europe.

The cemetery remains in use today, largely by descendants of mill recruits. Some Polish immigrants accompanied the Russians to Westford's mill villages and are interred here as well.

This cemetery sits on 1.33 acres. The earliest death date is 1918.

The Massachusetts Historical Commission refers to this cemetery in MACRIS as WSR.805 Russian Cemetery.
