The story of pioneers like John Ewing, their ranches, homesteads and the communities they helped build. The cemetery offers a quiet but meaningful link to the early 20th century prairie life.
The area around Ewing Lake (named for pioneer settler John Ewing) bears his legacy: the lake itself carries his name. John Ewing moved to the region in the 1890s, acquiring ranch and homestead land. The cemetery served the families and community of this early settlement region.
The immediate area is part of the broader settlement story of Stettler County: immigrants and homesteaders arriving in central Alberta, carving farms, ranches and service communities out of the prairie. Schools, small churches, and community halls followed, often supported by local pioneers like Ewing and their families.
