Overview

The Historic Pinal Cemetery serviced both the towns of Pinal and Superior from the years 1876 to 1892. The town of Superior continued using the cemetery until December of 1916. It is protected by the Archaeological Resources Protection Act of 1979 so please do not disturb anything you see. You can find more information [here](http://www.historicalmarkerproject.com/markers/HM1DW5_historic-pinal-cemetery_Superior-AZ.html). Those who are interested in old west history and Wyatt Earp will find this cemetery particularly interesting as it is the final resting place of Wyatt Earp's wife; Celia Blaylock or, Mattie Earp. You may remember the Hollywood version of their lives in the 1993 movie, Tombstone.
