The Sisters of the Visitation have buried their colleagues in this cemetery since their establishment at Mount de Chantal. There are some other people included in the cemetery who were employees, faculty, or colleagues of the sisters. A few of the graves represent Carmelite sisters whose graves were relocated when the Carmelite monastery in Wheeling was closed.
There are a total of 172 marked graves in the cemetery which was once adjacent to the Visitation Academy grounds. Although the Sisters have departed the Mount property, they have been assured by the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston that regardless of who might ultimately acquire the property, the cemetery will remain intact and perpetually be maintained.
