The Association has made many additions and improvements to its operations during its history. Rules and regulations and by-laws were adopted to govern the activities of the organization on November 4, 1899. In 1905 a section of the yard was set aside for burials of U.S. servicemen whenever found desirable.
Acreage was added to the grounds in 1914 when 5 acres were purchased from Wilson Rittenhouse. Two years later the burying grounds were enhanced by the addition of a receiving vault through the generosity of W. Egbert Thomas who memorialized his father, Wilson Thomas, by his donation. The next improvement was the construction of an office and tool house in 1922. In 1928 the Association sought to eliminate the troublesome sinking of grave sites by requiring all burials thereafter to be with concrete burial vaults. One of the most impressive betterments to the cemetery came in 1938 when a stone archway at its entrance was installed at a cost of approximately $5,000. The first power mower in the yard was acquired in 1942 much to the pleasure of the caretaker.
A new portion of the cemetery was laid out in 1978 and the first burial therein was John A. Weiss. The archway in 1985 was further beautified by the addition of urns on either side of the columns to accommodate the planting of flowers. ****Add something about the benches and anything else?
