The land, originally a half (1/2) acre lot, was purchased from William Ball on June 26, 1857 for five (5) shillings. The grantees were David Reed, Joseph Fisher, Robert Shannon, Richard Sprung, and John Heapy with Rev. Amos Bradshaw and John Ball as witnesses. In the 1920's a ¼ acre addition was bought from Frank Lansing and in 1968 another extension on the east side was added from Arie Duizer and wife.
The original pine trees bordering the north-east and south-west sides of the cemetery were bought from Benmiller nurseries and planted by John Govier and David Lansing. Some of these trees remain today (2021).
The first internment was Mrs. James (Sarah) Rapson on September 16, 1857.
In 1924 there was a "Clean Up Campaign" and a Perpetual Fund was started and today, still, is a beautiful and well-kept cemetery.
