The original section of the cemetery features very interesting upright headstones some of which are the region's pioneers.

Based on the current known interments the cemetery was first established around 1888. James Armstrong Newland was born October 11, 1832 and passed way August 15, 1888, he was 55 years of age.

The Ashcroft Cemetery is still active with approximately 301 known interments. This is a lovely cemetery with lush green lawns and studded with large trees and overlooks the Thompson River. The gate is unassuming and the cemetery bares no sign.
