The place is of exceptional significance as it informs of the earliest pioneers of the district.
Construction from 1905.
In 1910, the Yealering settlers were questioning the appropriateness of their people being buried in the Wickepin cemetery, and lobbied for their own cemetery.
A committee of eight men were responsible for the burials at the Wickepin Cemetery.
In 1914 the Church of England requested that the Roads Board clear the road into the cemetery.
In 1916, the cemetery was in a bad state, and the Wickepin Roads Board advised the Colonial Secretary, and suggested dissolving the Cemetery Board and vesting the site in the Roads Board, which they subsequently did.
Many of the settlers from the New Jerusalem settlement have been laid to rest in this cemetery, as well as many of the district's pioneers.
The cemetery land was originally part of Joyner's property.
Joyner was one of the New Jerusalem settlers.
In c1990, a group of concerned citizens cleaned up the overgrown and abandoned cemetery.
They listed the graves they could locate, and replaced dislodged headstones.
The cemetery has since been vandalised, and is once again overgrown.
The list as compiled lists the earliest burial as 1911, and the last as about late 1929, with the majority of burials in the 1920s.
Fisher and his wife from the New Jerusalem settlement rest in this cemetery.
When Fisher died, a three day vigil was kept at the grave-side waiting for him to resurrect.
