Founded in 1877, Columbia Pioneer Cemetery is located at Northeast Sandy Boulevard and 99th Avenue in Portland.
Columbia Pioneer Cemetery contains the gravesites of several early Parkrose farmers and residents. The grounds were donated by E. L. Quimby and both the Columbia Slough and Mount Tabor Masonic lodges were involved in the cemetery's management before it was acquired by Multnomah County in 1951.
Metro's pioneer cemeteries not only offer a unique look into the past, but are managed as active facilities. Public inquiries concerning gravesite selection and other services are welcome. Metro maintains burial records for use by family historians and genealogical researchers. To locate a gravesite, you can search the records online or contact pioneer cemetery staff.
