Four Corners
One of the newest Town cemeteries. Four Corners is located on Main Street in the Thorndike section of Palmer. The cemetery was laid out in 1851 after the purchase of three acres of land for the price of $100 per acre. Additional land was acquired in 1932 and today the cemetery consists of approximately seven acres of open sunny meadowland.
Oak Knoll
The oldest and largest of the four cemeteries, Oak KNoll, is located on Thorndike Street (Route 32) near the junction of Route 20. Oak Knoll Cemetery stands statley and elegant on approximately twenty wooded acres on a lovely terraced hillside. Originally called the "South Burying Yard," this cemetery was first mentioned in 1788 and the name changed to Oak Knoll in 1911. The oldest legible date on a headstone is 1732; however, records indicate a burial as early as 1729. A large number of costly and elegant monuments add much to the character of Oak Knoll Cmetery today.
Palmer Center
Palmer Cneter Cemetery is located in the geographical center of Palmer once known as the "old center." The meetinghouse was located in the "old Center" and in 1734 it was voted that a burying ground should be set nearby. The "burying place" was laid out in the spring of 1735. Palmer Center Cemetery contains approximately ten acres and is located on a peaceful hillside just off Route 32 and Warren Street.
