> Hi Lynda,

> Thanks for you interest. Here is my understanding of the situation.
>
> Way back when the Oregon Commission on Historic Cemeteries a state
> organization (that manages the historic cemetery list) was the Oregon
> Pioneer Cemetery Commission and it was legislatively mandated to the
> maintain the list of pioneer cemeteries. The Oregon Historic Cemeteries
> Association (the private, nonprofit) offered plaques and the early ones
> may have stated it as a pioneer cemetery. Later the Commission chose to
> include all historic cemeteries, not just those for pioneers and changed
> its name and the designation. All the listed pioneer cemeteries were
> transferred to the historic cemeteries list. So, as far as I know, there
> is no longer a pioneer cemetery list.
>
> I would recommend that you have the property added to the county and
> city historic resources lists if it meets their criteria.
>
> Beyond that is the National Register listing, which can be tough for
> cemeteries and takes about a year to complete. Let me know if I can be
> of any help.

> historic register, and not the pioneer register. There are numerous
> pioneers buried there and that is evidenced on some of the stones - a
> missionary that came out in 1845, etc.

> I'm just getting started, so any advice from anyone within our group
