The first recorded burial here was in 1860, but oral history says there were burials as early as 1850. Veterans of wars and conflicts since the Civil War are also buried here. In 1890 a wooden sidewalk was built from downtown so that the ladies' dresses wouldn't get muddy when they visited the graves of Modesto and Stanislaus County are at rest here.
