The earliest burial in the cemetery is from about the late 1880's. Due to a fire, records before mid 1919 were destroyed, and the only records available for that time period are on the tombstones. During the flu epidemic in late 1918 to early 1919, which claimed the lives of many residents, a mass grave was made in the center section of the cemetery, but those burial records of who is buried there were also destroyed in that fire.
