The original acreage for a Catholic cemetery was secured between  1873-1877 by Father John McGoldrick.  During the nation’s Centennial year, Mayor Lawrence Bresnahen gave a bond pledging the transfer of  the property as soon as the patent was obtained from Washington. More land was secured in 1885 bringing the total acreage to 18.32 acres.
In the early 1920s the iron fence was installed, the front entrance, & the aligning of grave markers was completed. This renovation was culminated in 1923 when Bishop McGovern named the cemetery “Olivet” and bought a Barre granite Celtic Cross for $3,000 to be placed at the Priest Circle. Together, they forever stand as a sign of the instrument of our redemption and the Holy Place where Jesus irrevocably embraced the cross of His Father's will.
