"There is a legend that two white men were buried at this site in the early 1820’s. However, Jeffcott in "Nooksack Tales And Trails" says the first burial was an infant. Further, an old time resident states that members of the BROWN family were the first burials.

According to records of deeds, the original plot of about 1-1/8 acres was donated by Mr. David WALLACE on 30 Jan 1886 to M. L. GEE, John J. BROWN, Franklin BRUNSON as trustees and their successors in office to be used as a cemetery for the burial of the dead. Several additional parcels of land have been added until there are now 13 acres. Enterprise Cemetery and Mountain View Cemetery comprise Whatcom County Cemetery District No 7. There is a resident sexton at Enterprise Cemetery. Cemetery records are very incomplete and have been extensively supplemented from other sources (i.e. newspaper clippings, family records, mortuary records, etc). Inquiries should be addressed to:

The Sexton, Enterprise Cemetery, 7041 Vista Drive, Ferndale, WA"
