Owned and managed by the RM of Minto-Odanah and was established in 1912.
It is a well-kept prairie grass cemetery with a natural bluff on the north and east. It is page-wire enclosed with a nice double-arched metal gate at the southeast end inscribed "Moore Park Cemetery 1912" with 1957 above a small walk-in gate.
There is a roadway up the east side. Also, it is divided almost in half by another road.
Facing the gate stands a stone cairn dedicated in 1978 with a mailbox-type container on a stand beside the cairn for a guest book.

A monument in the cemetery commemorates Moore Park United Church (aka St Paul's) which operated in the community from 1914 to 1972. The building has since been removed.

A part of the town's story and those of its inhabitants from the early days of European settlement through roughly 1973 is told in the volumes "They called it Odanah", especially starting on page 23, and "A History of Elton Municipality - Homesteaders and Homemakers -- A History of Elton Municipality in its First Century".
Free digital versions of these and many other Manitoba local history books can be found online in the University of Manitoba Digital Collections. There is also a list of such books organized by district and town name on the Manitoba Historical Society's website on their page entitled "Finding Aid: Manitoba Local History Books".
A list of burials in this cemetery is available from the Manitoba Genealogical Society (reference #0089), transcribed by a member or members in 1979. Also available to MGS members is a searchable online database named the "MGS Manitoba Name Index" (or MANI). Some additional information is contained in the 1996 MGS publication "Carved in Stone: Manitoba Cemeteries and Burial Sites" (revised edition, Special Projects Publication, 106 pages).
