At the north entrance of the grounds stands the First Settlers of Norwalk Memorial,[2] inscribed with the following names of 31 settlers who founded Norwalk in 1649: George Abbitt, Robert Beacham, Stephen Beckwith, John Bowton, Matthew Campfield, Nathaniel Eli, Thomas Fitch, John Griggorie, Samuel Hales, Thomas Hales, Walter Haite, Nathaniel Haies, Rev.

Thomas Hanford, Richard Homes, Ralph Keiler, Daniel Kellogge, Thomas Lupton, Matthew Marvin, Sr., Matthew Marvin, Jr., Isacke More, Jonathan Marsh, Widow Morgan, Richard Olmsted, Nathaniel Richards, John Ruskoe, Matthias Sention, Sr., Matthias Sention, Jr., Matthew Sention, Thomas Seamer, Richard Webb, and Walter Keiler.

Many graves are unmarked by headstones as remains were deposited before stones were available, and of which no mark or tradition is known.

In 1941, the Norwalk Third Taxing District entered into an agreement to supplement the association's perpetual care fund, due to a dwindling amount of donations.

Today, the district provides for the perpetual care of the grounds, while cemetery business is conducted by volunteers of the association.
