Ceremony at the Haymarket Martyrs' Monument in Forest Home Cemetery, Forest Park, Illinois, in May 1986, in which singer Utah Philips and others commemorated the 100th anniversary of the Haymarket Affair
Emma Goldman's grave. Jo Davidson was the sculptor of the bronze bas relief image of Goldman. (The dates of birth and death on the stone are incorrect.)

Forest Home Cemetery is a cemetery located at 863 S. DesPlaines Ave, Forest Park, Illinois, adjacent to the Eisenhower Expressway, straddling the Des Plaines River in Cook County, just west of Chicago.[1] The cemetery traces its history to two adjacent cemeteries, German Waldheim (1873) and Forest Home (1876), which merged in 1969.

The cemetery is known for its Haymarket Martyrs' Monument and surrounding gravesites.
