Morningside Cemetery is the Town's municipal cemetery and is located
just off the
Parker Head Road in a tranquil spot adjoining a tidal cove.
The recent expansion has more than doubled the capacity of the
earlier section.

Cemetery lots are available for purchase by town residents and taxpayers
for $350.00 and non-residents for $750.00.

Rule Reminders

December 15th to April 15th. Also, cemetery regulations prohibit the
planting of shrubs and trees on grave lots.
Private Cemeteries
There are over one hundred private cemeteries on private lands in the Town of
Phippsburg. Although the cemetery trustees are not responsible for their
maintenance, all residents are encouraged to respect these sacred resting
places. We appreciate the effort made by some folks and organizations to
maintain these old, private cemeteries. A map of private cemeteries is
available for review at the Town Office.
