From Everts "History of St. Lawrence County, New York" -
"The oldest cemetery in town was set off for burial purposes by the first settlers and was located near DeKalb village, on the bank of the Oswegatchie River. It has long been abandoned."
A conflict with the owner of the land where the cemetery was located caused a decision to build a new cemetery across the river. That new cemetery, now known as "Old DeKalb" was organized in 1858 and the first burial was around 1860. There are individuals buried in Old DeKalb who died prior to 1860, and its possible those individuals were moved from Pioneer cemetery.
