Metairie Cemetery is a historic cemetery in New Orleans, Louisiana, founded in 1872.^[2] The name has caused some people to mistakenly presume it is located in Metairie, Louisiana, but it is located within the New Orleans city limits on Metairie Road (and formerly on the banks of the since filled-in Bayou Metairie).
