The Pioneer cemetery in Inverhuron Prov. Park is the last survivor of the ghost town of Inverhuron's original settlement. Head stones date to the 1850's.

The original site was destroyed by two separate fires and much of the town was covered in sand dunes. Archaeological digs have produced foundations of homes, and sometimes pieces of the town emerge when some sand dunes are blown about.

A newer Inverhuron is located south of the original ghost town.
