About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

From 1900 until 1917 this cemetery served as the primary burial ground for resident of Kingman. After the opening of Mountain View cemetery in 1917, officials began moving bodies out of Pioneer Cemetery for a fee. Graves not relocated by family were left where they originated, and the cemetery was formally abandoned in 1944.

Most of the remains left behind were in unmarked graves. In 1948, Kingman Junior High was built next to the cemetery site, and in 1957 Kingman High School was built on an adjacent property. In 2009, these two facilities were revamped into the new Lee Williams High School, and excavation for that project turned up the old cemetery under the former football field.
