Prior to that time, people were buried at most any out-of-the-way spot on the homesteads. After the Cemetery was dedicated, many of the pioneers moved their deceased family members from scattered graves to the Hillside Cemetery. The first were the children of William Grant Winbourn, founder of the Town of Fort Lupton and father of its first Mayor, Thomas C. Winbourn.
On the 4th of May, 1949, by the adoption of Ordinance No. 215, the Town of Fort Lupton acquired the Cemetery from Hillside Cemetery Association and has operated it as a public cemetery since.
Additions to the Cemetery were made in 1892, 1920, 1950, 1972 and 2000. The Cemetery occupies approximately 8.6 acres of land with over 7,000 people buried.
