While there are many historic cemeteries on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, only a handful have been listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The following cemetery descriptions and information come from their respective National Register nomination forms. These can be found at apps.mdah.ms.gov/Public/search.aspx.
