Pioneer Cemetery at Pena Adobe
Vacaville, Solano County, California, USA
The Pioneer Cemetery at Pena Adobe is located on the hill north-east of the Pena Adobe building. Access is by one of several hiking trails to the top of the hill.
Pioneer graves were relocated from Steinmetz Hill to this common burial plot during Interstate 80 construction.
Steinmetz Hill was the location of a cemetery dating from shortly after the arrival of Juan Felipe Pena and Manuel Vaca of the Rancho Los Putos grant.
During construction of the freeway overpass serving Cherry Glen and Lagoon Valley Roads, 29 graves were relocated to the Pioneer Cemetery at Pena Adobe in 1963.
There is only one marker showing in the burial plot, that of Richard Lewis, who died in 1860.
A record search is needed to identify additional burials.
