NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES CONTINUATION SHEET Section 7 Page 1 Oakland Cemetery, Webster County, Iowa NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION Oakland Cemetery consists of 40 acres of land north of Soldier Creek and west of 15th Street in Fort Dodge, Iowa. The cemetery contains an unknown number of burials, of which about 7,000 are marked with stone grave markers in a range of styles reflecting the Victorian influence and specific design trends of the period. It was planned as a natural park setting, with graves and monuments arranged around the natural contours of the hilly area overlooking Soldier Creek. A variety of oaks and other native trees dot the landscape. Access to the cemetery is from 15th Street; it was originally accessed from 16th Street. Other than some expected weathering of limestone and marble grave markers, the removal of a vault erected in 1882, the construction of a brick equipment shed circa 1930 and the addition of a frame equipment/maintenance shed in 1985, the property has undergone very little change since the period of significance. RESOURCES The Oakland Cemetery is classified as a district for the National Register. It contains eleven contributing resources. They include the overall landscape design, which is classified as a site; a potter's field, which is classified as a site; and nine individual or grouped gravesites or monuments, which are classified as objects. 1. Overall Landscape Design - Contributing Site The forty-acre cemetery site, originally located on the outskirts of what would become the City of Fort Dodge, is made up of rolling hills overlooking Soldier Creek to the south. It includes the highest point in the Fort Dodge area. It was chosen as a cemetery for its park-like beauty. The curving roadways and clusters of gravesrtes were laid out around the natural contours of the land and the existing vegetation, creating a beautiful park setting reflective of the Rural Cemetery Movement of the mid-1800s. The most prestigious burial sites, and thus the most elaborate grave markers, are located on the highest ground, along with a monument to Civil War soldiers; a potter's field sits on the lowland near the Creek. The Cemetery is divided into 10 sections, separated by roadways that follow the contours of the site.

  • Egypt in Connecticut: Egyptianizing Architecture from New Haven to Coventry,” by Eminent Archaeologist and Yale University Faculty Member, Colleen Manassa
    Contact: Margaret Anne Tockarshewsky, Executive Director, New Haven Museum 203-562-4183, ext. 20, [email protected] Julie Winkel, Media Specialist, 203-815-0800, [email protected] The Influence of Exotic Egypt on Connecticut Architecture at New Haven Museum New Haven, Conn. (April 8, 2014) –Soon after artists and scientists catalogued the exotic wonders of Egypt (following Napoleon’s Egyptian campaign of 1798–9), Egyptian Revival style swept over Europe and the United States and remained popular throughout the 19th century. Connecticut preserves some of the most significant Egyptianizing architecture within the northeastern United States, including the striking Grove Street Cemetery gateway in New Haven, which was designed by architect Henry Austin and completed in 1847. On Thursday, April 17, at 6:00 p.m., the New Haven Museum and the Friends of Grove Street Cemetery will present a lecture, “Egypt in Connecticut: Egyptianizing Architecture from New Haven to Coventry,” by eminent archaeologist and Yale University faculty member, Colleen Manassa. During the lecture, Manassa—locally renowned for her contributions to the highly successful “Echoes of Egypt: Conjuring the Land of the Pharaohs” exhibition in 2013 at the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History—will discuss the imagery and meaning of the 19th-century Grove Street Cemetery Gate design and the Egyptian Revival movement in Connecticut and New Haven. The free event will be held at the museum, and will be preceded by a reception at 5:30. Colleen Manassa (B.A., Yale 2001, Ph.D. 2005) joined the Yale University Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations as the Marilyn M.
