The Makawao Cemetery is descended from the “Foreign Church” that occupied the property from 1861 to 1889 and where its founding minister, the Reverend Jonathan Green, and his wife are buried. There is a rich history of people resting at the Makawao Cemetery, many of whom played a significant role in what Maui has become.
The cemetery is owned and managed by the Makawao Cemetery Association and is a 501 (c) (13) charity. The mission of the Makawao Cemetery Association is:
