The Bohemian Cemetery was incorporated on April 25, 1883, by fifteen founding members. Ten acres were purchased for $800 at 54th and Center streets (now 52nd street). Initially 38 blocks were platted, a block containing four lots of 12 graves each. For a long time the cemetery remained in a not very improved condition. Lots were sold at first at $10.00 apiece, consequently there were no funds for betterment. The cemetery has been managed since its origin by an association of lot owners: the Bohemian Cemetery Association | Český Hřbitovní Spolek.
Also known as Bohemian National Cemetery and Česko-Národní Hřbitov.
