About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The cemetery was between the two lakes on the University of Notre Dame campus on land that is now the south lawn of Columbia Hall. When the river flooded, this area became an island. The nuns' graves were moved to Our Lady of Peace Cemetery in 1867; the priests' graves were moved to Community Cemetery.

Indiana Cemetery Locations, Volume 3, published by the Indiana Genealogical Society (April 2007), gives the primary cemetery name as On the Island Cemetery with an alternate name of Island Cemetery.
