The
cemetery is operated and maintained by the Town of Quartzsite for the purposes
of providing a cemetery, historic site and park. The Hi Jolly monument is
in the pioneer section of the cemetery where Quartzsite's pioneer families were
and are laid to rest. There is a new section to the cemetery also for
those who chose to be interred in Quartzsite. The cemetery sits at the
west end of town. The Town is committed to beautifying the cemetery
and preserving this historic site.

In
1935, Arizona Governor Benjamin Moeur dedicated
a monument to Hadji Ali and the Camel Corps in the
Quartzsite Cemetery. The monument, located at his gravesite, is a pyramid built
from local stones and topped with a copper camel. The monument is the most
visited location in Quartzsite.
