Los Gatos Memorial Park is the principle cemetery of Los Gatos, California, established in 1889. It occupies some thirty acres, with the main entrance at 2255 Los Gatos-Almaden Road, San Jose, California 95124. By the late 1880s, Los Gatos needed a cemetery, and the matter was considered by the Odd Fellows Lodge. As a result, on December 9, 1889, some members of the lodge formed the Los Gatos Cemetery Association, with J. H. Lyndon as president, and it went on to acquire land and establish a burial ground which was at first known as the Los Gatos Cemetery. In 1901, the cemetery was advertised as "2½ miles E on Almaden rd", with offices in Los Gatos at Main near Railroad Avenue. By 1997, the Los Gatos Cemetery had been renamed as a Memorial Park and had also been taken into its city limits by the San Jose City Council.
