East Meadows Cemetery, located in the southwest corner of Pritchard Park at the intersection of Ohio Street and Durand Avenue/Wisconsin Highway 11, is one of two pauper's cemeteries in Racine County. The other is West Meadows Cemetery in Rochester. This cemetery was a burial place for those who could not afford burial elsewhere, as well those who were unclaimed by their families. It is owned and maintained by the county. There are no markers. In July 1971, about 40 bodies were moved to West Meadows Cemetery from East Meadows Cemetery due to the expansion of Durand Avenue.
