One of the oldest cemeteries in the area, it houses many of the early pioneer families engaged in farming the rich lands. Notables include Adam Uhlinger, who started a winery, Uhlinger Winery, which became d'Agostini in 1911, and is currently Sobon, which is one of the longest continuously operating wineries in California, starting circa 1865. Many of the oak vats made by local cooper and early grape grower and fruit farmer, John J Davis, are featured at the museum on site.
Other notable early pioneer families buried here include the Balls, Bells, Crains, Dillions, and the Uptons.
The earliest existing headstones are of Mary Wheeler Gaddy, d. 11/7/1852 and Zachariah T Williams, d. 12/2/1852.
This cemetery is still in use today, mostly by existing family members.
