This cemetery has burials from the early 20th century until the present. It is still active. In speaking with a descendent of Russian immigrants with knowledge of those interred, I was informed that an attempt was made to put the cemetery on the National Register of Historic Places but the families decided against it as that would have placed restrictions on who could be buried there. It was further stated that access for the purpose of imaging the headstones would not be granted due to the family's request for privacy.
