To my knowledge, there is no Oakmont Cemetery in Niagara Falls. However, comma, about the biggest cemetery in Niagara Falls is the Oakwood Cemetery and it's located at 763 Portage Road, Niagara Falls, NY, 14301, 716-284-5131. I believe someone posted a message recently that let us know that they have an office on the premises and that the clerk there is very helpful in finding the graves of whoever you're looking for. The burials date back to about 1852. And although you don't know what I'm talking about here right now, it's across from Cedar Avenue and it's very near the old Trott Vocational High School and when I was a student at Niagara Falls High School, I walked past that cemetery almost every day on my way to Spinner's Restaurant where all of us high school kids congregated after school to sit down to a Coke together. Oh the stories I could tell you about all of the flirting and gossip that went on at Spinner's in the 1940s!! Good luck on your upcoming visit to the Falls. vee
