Pioneer Cemetery is located at the corner of Foothill Boulevard and Bledsoe Street in Sylmar, and covers just under four acres of what once was part of Senator Charles Maclay's ranch. Established around 1870 as Morningside Cemetery, it operated continually until it was abandoned and the last person was officially buried there in 1939. There were approximately 750 graves, many belonging to Native Americans, and veterans of both the Civil War and World War I. In addition to many prominent citizens of the day, there were many young children who died of influenza and others who died in floods caused by the St. Francis dam disaster.
