This private family cemetery is now owned and managed by the RM of Oakview. It was established in 1894 while the Dennison Church (Methodist) was on the adjacent land. It is named for the family who owned and homesteaded the land at that time and contains six burials of members of the Dennison family.

A part of the town's story and those of its inhabitants from the early days of European settlement through roughly 1984 is told in the volumes "History of Blanshard Municipality - Volumes I, II, and III", especially starting on page 411. A free digital version of this and many other Manitoba local history books can be found online in the University of Manitoba Digital Collections. There is also a list of such books organized by district and town name on the Manitoba Historical Society's website on their page entitled "Finding Aid: Manitoba Local History Books".

A list of burials in this cemetery is available from the Manitoba Genealogical Society (reference #0591), transcribed by a member or members in 1980. Also available to MGS members is a searchable online database named the "MGS Manitoba Name Index" (or MANI). Some additional information is contained in the 1996 MGS publication "Carved in Stone: Manitoba Cemeteries and Burial Sites" (revised edition, Special Projects Publication, 106 pages).
