Evergreen Cemetery is a plot of south of the Orange County Courthouse, off Border and Jackson street.
The four gates are off Jackson, and a turn into the first gate leads into the oldest part of the cemetery.
The oldest marked grave in the cemetery is Margaret Ann Ochiltree from 1855. It is possible that burials in the cemetery began as early as the 1840s, but no marked graves earlier than 1855 have ever been found.
