This cemetery located in old Pickering Village, in Ajax, was owned by the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers). Founded on land donated by Timothy Rogers in 1814. Early graves were not marked by stones so Rogers grave location is unknown. A plaque was placed in 2004 by the Heritage Ajax Advisory Committee.
The cemetery has space for around 300 graves.
