Ventura County CA Archives Cemeteries.....Simi Valley Public Cemetery- Pioneer Section - Partial Survey More to Come ************************************************ Copyright.

It is located just west of the intersection of Erringer Road and Royal Avenue, on Thompson Road, behind the Rancho Park softball diamonds and Circle K Gas Station. This is the oldest cemetery in the city, dating back to the mid-19th century. When speaking to the caretaker, he advised that all records associated with this area have been lost and to be buried in this section, you must show proof of original receipt of purchase, which is a 100 year old document. There are many families, some of which are outlined in the book, Simi Valley, A Journal through Time by Simi Valley Historical Society and Museum (Strahern Park) and the Border's Book in town. This is a work in progress and as I log each plot, I will be placing them up here. If you're looking for a particular family, please email me.
