With the aging civil war veterans unable to maintain the cemetery, the American Legion Post 290 assumed care and ownership of the cemetery in 1920. After nearly 100 years of service, the Legion post deeded the cemetery to the village of Homer. The GAR cemetery holds over 3600 burials and is open to all.
