Biscoe Cemetery

The Biscoe Cemetery is located at 480 N Main Street, Biscoe, N.C. 27209

 

The Town of Biscoe prides itself on having a pristine and well-managed cemetery for citizens to lay their loved ones to rest. Town staff works diligently to keep it well-groomed.  The Town owns and maintains the land, which is individually deeded to those who purchase plots.

 

There are a few stipulations to consider before purchasing a cemetery plot. Please review the following:

 

• Flowers and vases must be attached to headstones
• Foot markers must be flush to the ground
• Flat markers at ground level and head stones are allowed
• Vaults are required
• No obstructions will be allowed that will prevent access of maintenance or upkeep of grounds (i.e. benches, etc)
• $30 fee for recording the cemetery deed.
