History

Leaders of the Japanese Association, which became the Nikkei Jin Kai after World War II, purchased a large portion of the cemetery. In 2005, the Japanese Ancestral Society became the cemetery's title holder. The organization continues to administer an endowment to maintain the cemetery.[1]
