Eliminate the Work for Parish Staff
Lazarus handles the scanning, transcription, mapping, and field verification so clergy, staff, and volunteers don't have to.
Parish Cemetery Records Can Span Generations
Many Catholic cemeteries have been maintained by generations of priests, parish staff, cemetery boards, and volunteers. Over time, burial information can become spread across handwritten ledgers, index cards, paper maps, spreadsheets, and the knowledge of individual caretakers.
​
Lazarus brings that information together. We preserve your historical records digitally, organize the burial data, and connect it with an accurate cemetery map that can continue serving the parish for generations.

We Don't Send Your Parish a Project. We Complete It for You.
Moving decades of cemetery records into a modern digital system can be overwhelming—especially for parishes with limited staff or volunteers.
​
Lazarus is a full-service cemetery mapping and digitization company. We travel to your cemetery, scan records on-site, transcribe the necessary information, map the cemetery, and walk the grounds to compare existing records with physical memorials. Your parish receives a completed digital cemetery system instead of another project to manage.
Lazarus Cemetery Mapping did a thorough and very professional digital mapping of our Catholic cemetery which serves several parishes of the town of Jasper, Indiana. All the clergy who are on the local cemetery board were quite pleased with their work. Their prices are extremely affordable. Please consider them for your cemetery mapping needs!
