Kanab Pioneer Cemetery


Location: 173 East 405 North, Kanab, Utah
This is a plot of ground, surrounded by a chain link fence, and has a monument that lists seven names of pioneers that are known to be buried here between 1873 and 1879.  The monument erected by Camp Willow of the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers, states “In memory of our Kanab Pioneers known and unknown, who are buried here.”  These names and burial dates are from the earliest years of our town, and the surnames are long time residents of Kanab.  The remains of the headstones have been removed and preserved from the weather.
