This cemetery was used as a burial ground for settlers of Paria township (now a ghost town) and Paiute Indians from the area. The graves are marked by plain sandstone blocks with no inscriptions. It is unknown if these were the original grave markers or if they have been added as part of a restoration process. There are about 30 such markers in the cemetery and a bronze plaque lists 13 non-Indian names, presumably buried at this site.
