Although this history of this place is quite remarkable, sadly, there is visually not much to see here. Vandals and robbers have made off with most of the headstones, and a guided tour I took was primarily a discussion of what used to be here and what was visible through ground penetrating radar. An interesting piece of Valley history, but not really worth a trip. If you have funds to contribute to its restoration or to the historical preservation society that supports the site, by all means do so, and maybe this place will be restored.

Noble donated the site in memory of the pioneers of San Fernando as a Pioneer Memorial Park.nnCalifornia Historic Landmark Number 753nnNote: Open on the third Saturday of each month from 9:00 am to noon.
Well, I've become an adult over the past 48+ years. This Nissan dealership, and various others have seemed to satisfy a good, hard-working market. I have stayed away from these very current and modern sales facilities because I have known my credit would concerns wouldv be embarrassing.
Very interesting location, must have driven past it 100 times. We ended up visiting because of its historical designation: California Historical Landmark #753. Earlier known as Morningside Cemetery, this is the oldest nonsectarian cemetery in San Fernando Valley. It was used from the early 1800s until 1939, it was legally abandoned in 1959, when Mrs. Nellis S. Noble donated the site in memory of the pioneers of San Fernando.
I loved the history of it all especially the civil war veterans who are buried there. The memorial day celebration was very special.
