The origin of the cemetery name is uncertain, but it is near the western edge of the town of Lutcher. The cemetery is at the northwestern end of Courseault Street by the Lutcher water tower.
The partial listing has been updated with obituaries and tombstone photos taken in March 2022 by Jane Edson & Margie Pearce.
The photographers were unaware that Western & Golden Wreath cemeteries are side by side, separated by a small ditch and grassy lane. Neither cemetery has a sign.
As a consequence there are some burial listed in Western that may be in Golden Wreath. An asterick (*) in the document column indicates that photo may be from Golden Wreath.
Plus sign (+) indicates the document also includes a tombstone photo.
If you know which cemetery the starred (*) photos belong or if you have obituaries or tombstone pictures for the cemetery or know the history of the cemetery, please email the Parish Coordinator for inclusion on this page.
