The exact period of the cemetery’s establishment is unknown. According to an expedition of the US Commission in the 2000s, the earliest preserved gravestone relates to the early 17th century. In 2018, the ESJF expedition did not locate this gravestone on the site. The cemetery fence was installed by ESJF in August 2017.
