Located next to Saint Marys Cemetery. Mooney is secular and is managed by Moraine Township. St. Mary's Cemetery is a Roman Catholic Cemetery and is managed by the church.

A large section of this cemetery contains the graves of members of the four railroad brotherhoods (Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Engineers, Order of Railway Conductors, and Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen) as well as of members of their Ladies Auxiliaries. The Home for Aged and Disabled Railroad Employees of America was relocated from Chicago to Highland Park circa 1895. A large new building for the Home was dedicated in 1910, on St Johns Avenue north of Beech Street in Highland Park, about 3 miles east of the cemetery. By the 1960's the Home had been re-purposed by the Roman Catholic Church as the Villa St. Cyril residence for retired men and women, but the building no longer exists.
