St Joseph Cemetery was established on November 25, 1854 by the St Joseph German Orphan Asylum Association. Many German families who settled in the Irish Channel chose to bury their loved ones here. Ownership and administration of the cemetery was assumed by the Archdiocese of New Orleans on May 9, 1947.
Of the 210 veterans buried here, 93% are war veterans.
