Tangipahoa Parish (Louisiana) is a bit messy, cemetery wise.

On the west side of Ponchatoula is the big "Ponchatoula Cemetery." It is owned by the city of Ponchatoula. On the southeast side of Ponchatoula are the Ponchatoula Methodist Cemetery(Taskers AME) and the Ponchatoula Baptist Cemetery(New Zion Baptist Church). These two are exclusively African American cemeteries. Often in obituaries, on applications for military tombstones, and on death certificates, these cemeteries are just called "Ponchatoula." When people are adding memorials to Find A Grave for persons in these two cemeteries they put them over in the city "Ponchatoula Cemetery."

In Hammond, there is "Greenlawn Cemetery" owned by the city. On the south end of that is a separate (African American) cemetery maintained by the Greenfield Baptist Church; it is called "Greenfield Cemetery #1." In the beginning, some death certificates listed it correctly, but eventually everyone casually fell into the habit of calling it "Greenlawn" on death certificates, military headstone applications, and in obituaries. Again FAG memorials often get placed in the wrong cemetery.

***This Hammond City Ordinance lists the recognized usable cemeteries of Hammond (There are also some small historical cemeteries that are no longer used such as the Greenfield Baptist Church Cemetery on Wilson Street where no one has been buried in a hundred years.)

As one goes north, there is the old "Amite Cemetery"; this is a prestigious cemetery; a former governor's parents are buried there. Directly across HWY-16 from there is the "Mulberry Street Cemetery." Both these cemeteries have clearly labeled signs, but obituaries almost always just say "Amite" or "Amite Cemetery" for both.

Also in Amite, I find that obituaries sometimes make no distinction between Butler Cemetery (Old Butler Cemetery) and New Butler Cemetery.

On old death certificates, the place of burial is often just "Amite", when they mean "Butler Cemetery".

Then there are the two Spring Creek ... Baptist Cemeteries about 10 miles apart. One is west of Kentwood in St. Helena Parish (It is an African-American Cemetery).* The other is east of Kentwood in Tangipahoa Parish and is primarily "white." Obituaries for both usually just say, "Interment (or burial) in Spring Creek Cemetery, Kentwood, LA."

*It is listed on FAG as in Easleyville, LA; but has a Kentwood postal address.

There are 4 cemeteries in Tangipahoa Parish with the name Stevens included. Obituaries often just say "Stevens Cemetery."

The difference between the Durbin Cemetery and the Durbin & Myra Cemetery is hard to explain to people.

Obituaries say "burial in New Zion Cemetery, Kentwood."; but Kentwood is in Tangipahoa Parish and both New Zion (Baptist Church) Cemeteries are 5 miles west of Kentwood in St. Helena Parish. They are listed as in Easleyville, LA on Find A Grave; but both have Kentwood postal addresses.

Anyway, the problem is funeral homes, newspapers, and county clerks thinking that accuracy isn't important.
