There are currently 2 known burials at Elim Grove--10 year old Bernard F. Reilly and also W. B. Ridges.
Santa Rosa Press Democrat, February 1940
In early February 1940, an entire cemetery (only two graves) was moved at Elim Grove, near Cazadero, in clearing the right-of-way for the new Austin Creek road into the resort community.
Graves were moved to a side hill overlooking the new roadway and the monuments were replaced by WPA workers.
The location of Elim Grove is in the Cazadero District of Sonoma County, which includes the small town of Cazadero, as well as the surrounding open land which consisted mostly of ranches and farms. Elim Grove is about 1.6 miles south of the town of Cazadero.
Elim Grove is a small redwood forest, of about 50 acres, which has seen many uses through the past decades. During the past century, the land was enjoyed as both a YMCA and a Boy Scout encampment. Later on, the City of Berkeley established a family and children's camp there. In subsequent years, a Berkeley Music Camp was established at the property as well as the Cazadero Performing Arts Camp.
