The cemetery consists of many sections that divide the area from the Eisenhower Expressway south to Roosevelt Road and from First Avenue east to DesPlanes Avenue. Each section is divided into a vast number of "lots" which are sold to individuals or organizations. The sale of each lot is recorded in a deed, and the deed records remain the possession of the cemetery management. Lots can be subdivided and sold to another "party."
