In 1843 Addison Township settler Ernest Mann
donated one acre of land to the local community
for use as a cemetery. The cemetery has since
expanded to more than eleven acres. Among the
first to be buried here was Private Derrick Hulick, a
veteran of the American Revolution who enlisted
in the New Jersey militia in June 1776. The
Lakeville Cemetery Auxiliary was established in
1910 to maintain the cemetery and preserve its
history.
