Saint Joseph Cemetery is a Catholic cemetery owned and operated by the Diocese of Columbus located in Lockbourne, Ohio. The original 194-acre property was purchased in 1907 under the direction of Bishop James Hartley, and subsequent purchases expanded its size to its current 755 acres. Hartley blessed the cemetery on All Souls' Day of 1913 and the first interment was made in the same month. In 1929, the English Gothic Our Mother of Sorrows Chapel was completed on the property. The chapel would serve as a parish church from 1947 to 1970, and the property also hosted a summer camp, Camp Saint Joseph, from 1926 to 1970. It is the largest of the four cemeteries administered by the Diocese of Columbus.
