The initial, 1-1/2 acre portion of the Maple Grove Cemetery was leased from Charles Noble of Monroe, Michigan in 1844. An addition was made and formally platted by Isaac B. Woodhouse, a Mason businessman, in 1873. Several additions were made to the cemetery's acreage in the nineteenth century. The name was changed to "Maple Grove Cemetery" in 1897. The main entryway and receiving vault were built in 1890, and the surrounding stone wall was added in 1934. [2]
The Maple Grove Cemetery occupies an area of gently rolling hills, and contains a variety of nineteenth and twentieth-century monuments interspersed among curving paths and tall maple trees. An 1890 Romanesque Revival receiving vault is located near the entrance. It has a steeply pitched gable roof and a three-part facade divided by string courses: checkerboard stone patterns at the top, a section containing the top of the arched door opening in the middle, and the door itself on the lower level. A 1934 stone entrance gate/wall made of large blocks set in a matrix of smaller cobblestones surrounds the entrance. [2]

The Historic Cemeteries of New Orleans, New Orleans, United States, are a group of forty-two cemeteries that are historically and culturally significant. These are distinct from most cemeteries commonly located in the United States in that they are an amalgam of the French, Spanish, and Caribbean historical influences on the city of New Orleans in addition to limitations resulting from the city's high water table. The cemeteries reflect the ethnic, religious, and socio-economic heritages of the city. Architecturally, they are predominantly above ground tombs, family tombs, civic association tombs, and wall vaults, often in neo-classical design and laid out in regular patterns similar to city streets. They are at times referred to colloquially as “Cities of the Dead”, and some of the historic cemeteries are tourist destinations.
