Our activites in the cemetery began years ago, when one of our charter
members made a donation to provide a park and marker (photo at right)
at the west end of
the grounds. The brass plaque is attached to large boulder. Memorial
Day services have been held in the park each year until 2005, when
they were moved to the flagpole area.
We have been working with the Millburn Cemetery Board of Directors to repair and refurbish the fence and gates along the north edge (street side) of the cemetery.
As funds have been raised, workmen have been hired to do the work. Our association raises the funds and passes them to the cemetery board, which pays the company hired to do the work.

Donations are being accepted to continue the work.
We have more information about the cemetery in our online archives: history of the cemetery, lists of veterans, our participation in Memorial Day services, etc.
Please note that we do not own nor manage the cemetery. We are not able to provide genealogical research based upon cemetery records, as we do not have access to them.
