The cemetery site was a part of Judge Fain's estate and was in use for family interments before he offered it to Calhoun for burial purposes. In 1898, the land was deeded to Calhoun, vesting control in the municipal authorities and their successors.
The tract was laid off in symmetrical lots. Boundary lines were marked by a stone wall and ornamental hedges. Surplus trees and undergrowth were removed, and drive-ways were constructed. Its accessibility and proximity to the town were attractive features, and the new cemetery rapidly became a popular resting place for the dead.
Today, the City of Calhoun Cemetery Department maintains Fain Cemetery—selling and transferring burial rights for cemetery spaces, maintaining the grounds, etc.
