About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Kraft Foods bought the old Russell-Ceperly farm at the northeast corner of Waukegan Road (Route 43) and Willow Road in Northfield on which to build their headquarters in the 1970's. Kraft planned to move the small family cemetery that was on the farm. However, descendants of those buried there objected. Kraft redesigned their building around the old cemetery. A condition for the approval of their development included an archeological study of the cemetery. Some of the burials listed for this cemetery are per that study, although some of the graves are not marked.
The graves are on a wooded hillside right next to the building, near the guardhouse at the traffic light on Waukegan Road. Located at Medline Industries.
A copy of Kraft's archaeological study is on file at the Northbrook Historical Society, Northbrook IL.
