Fairmount Cemetery was established around 1880 by the Hubbard family. It was eventually deeded over to Bethesda about 1915, and expanded to its present boundary in 1929.

Note: Fairmount Cemetery makes up the easternmost portion of Preston’s Junior Order Cemetery. A concrete marker on the Linchester Road delineates the boundary between the properties, but the properties are continuous and practically indistinguishable.
