Where Are We Located in Warsaw? 

We’re at 55 South Main Street, in the heart of Warsaw village. As the Wyoming County seat, Warsaw sits centrally enough that families from across the county already know their way to Main Street, whether they’re here for the courthouse or for us.

Warsaw Cemetery and Quaker Settlement Cemetery each set their own rules on foundation depth, monument size, and permitted materials. We contact whichever office holds authority over your family’s plot directly, so you’re not the one tracking down the requirements.

Wyoming County’s clay-heavy soil moves with every winter freeze and thaw cycle. A foundation that doesn’t reach below New York’s frost line won’t hold a monument level for long, no matter how well the stone itself is made.

Warsaw Cemetery and Quaker Settlement Cemetery

Warsaw Cemetery

Warsaw Cemetery sits along South Main Street, with sections on both sides of the road, including the adjoining Pioneer section at its north boundary. If your family has a plot here, we coordinate the permit and foundation approval directly with the cemetery office, so nothing stalls once your design is finalized.

Quaker Settlement Cemetery

Quaker Settlement Cemetery, on Quakertown Road in the neighboring Town of Orangeville, is now part of the Forest Lawn Cemetery Group. We confirm foundation specifications and permit requirements directly with the current management before any design moves into fabrication.
If your family’s cemetery isn’t listed here, call us and we’ll confirm what’s required before you order.

Confirming Requirements Before Fabrication Starts

Under New York State law, the cemetery holding your family’s plot has final say over foundation depth, monument size, and permitted materials. We get that approval in writing before your monument goes into production, so there’s no risk of building something that doesn’t clear the requirements. If an existing monument at Warsaw Cemetery has started to lean or crack, monument restoration is often a faster fix than a full replacement.

What We Build for Wyoming County Families

Everything Carmichael & Reed builds comes out of our own shop, not an outside supplier. Upright monuments, our most requested style, come in granite and bronze combinations with optional porcelain photo additions, single or companion. Slant and flat markers work for cemeteries with size restrictions or for families who prefer something simpler. We also build memorial benches, columbarium niches for cremation, and mausoleums for families who want an above-ground resting place.

Bronze plaques and lettering cover new inscriptions as well as adding a name to an existing family monument years later, matched to the original finish. Our in-house artist handles hand and laser etching directly on dark granite, whether that’s a portrait, a farm scene, or something fully custom worked from a photograph, a common request in a county with more dairy cattle than people. And when an older monument has cracked, tilted, or faded, we repair and clean it using methods that protect the stone rather than pressure-washing it.

Why Wyoming County Families Choose Us

A history in this county: We’ve been in Warsaw since 1860, working with the same cemeteries and the same families’ descendants for generations.

One shop, start to finish: Design, lettering, etching, and installation all happen under our own roof. Nothing gets sent to a third-party fabricator.

Direct cemetery coordination: We contact Warsaw Cemetery or Quaker Settlement ourselves rather than handing you a list of rules to research on your own.

Foundations built for Wyoming County ground: Every foundation we set clears the frost line as standard practice, not something you have to request.

A single point of contact: The person who answers your call manages your order from the first conversation through installation day.

What Bronze and Granite Markers Cost

Signs Your Monument Needs To Check 

A shallow original foundation is the most common reason an older monument starts to shift. These are worth checking on a family monument.

01

The stone leans, even slightly, relative to the ground around it

02

Cracks have opened at the base or through the upright section above it

03

Dark or green biological growth has spread across the face

04

Lettering that used to read clearly is now hard to make out from a few feet away

05

A visible gap has opened between the base of the monument and the foundation beneath it

Choosing Granite Options at Our Showroom 

Our showroom carries physical samples from a granite color selection of more than 90 named options. Academy Black gives the strongest contrast for etched portraits and scenes, while Dakota Mahogany runs warmer and suits companion stones well. Seeing samples in outdoor light makes a real difference before deciding.

Granite holds up against freeze-thaw conditions in a way marble doesn’t. Marble is more porous, wears faster in this climate, and loses fine lettering detail within a few decades. Our granite vs marble comparison breaks down exactly how each material performs over time.

Families in Warsaw and across Wyoming County request everything from traditional upright designs to custom farm-scene and portrait etchings, worked from whatever photograph a family brings in.
