Abilene Municipal Cemetery is often simply called Abilene Cemetery. It is a large, sprawling complex that is operated by the City of Abilene. The cemetery has never been inventoried and as a consequence there are no books available that list the burials. The only list is held by the Community Services Department, City of Abilene. In January 2002 the city placed a current listing of the burials online. CLICK HERE to go to the listing site.
