Imperial Historic Cemetery

GPS Coordinates: 32.872054, -115.560469
County: Imperial
Record count: 120

Ownership: Central Valley Cemetery District

Directions: Travel to the north end of the City of Imperial on Highway 86. At the intersection with Larsen street, head east. The road curves to the south, and changes names to Clark street. The Cemetery is about 1/10th of a mile from the curve on the east side of the road.

Background: The cemetery is no longer used for burials.

The ground is saturated with alkalai, and nothing grows there. There are most likely several more burials than what is listed here, as evidenced by several areas of ground-sinking.

There have been reports of a glowing light dancing in the cemetery. Apparently, there is a light on a water tower near the cemetery which reflects off of a black marble tombstone that causes this eerie glow.
