Oakland Cemetery & Memorial Park is a municipal cemetery located just south of Perkins Avenue on Milan Road. The City of Sandusky purchased Oakland Cemetery & Memorial Park, which originally encompassed some 134 acres, from land owned by the widow Jane S. Williams, heir to the 500 acre Beatty Tract. John Beatty was a pioneer settler of Perkins Township and the brother of Mrs. Williams. One of the largest blocks of granite in Oakland Cemetery bears the name of John Beatty, along with many of his heirs. It is located near the Northwest corner of the cemetery. Walking tours are available by appointment with the Sandusky Library.
