Hillcrest Cemetery was originally a Presbyterian burial ground and the site of the first Presbyterian meeting house, a frame building situated at the north end of the property. A fence at this north end of the property currently separates St Paul's Anglican Church Cemetery from that of Hillcrest. The frame church eventually became too small and in 1879 a brick church was built on the corner of Guelph and Draper Streets.
Although the first deed was never registered in the land records, a preserved copy shows that in 1839 James Mitchell sold ¼ acre to Alexander McNab, James McNab, Duncan McGregor and John Miller, the Trustees of the Presbyterian Church. Additional cemetery land was purchased in 1862, 1889 and again in 1909.
Hillcrest Cemetery is now non-denominational and is still open for burials. As of 2016, the Town of Halton Hills operates and maintains the cemetery on behalf of the Hillcrest Cemetery Board. The original records have been lost, however there is a map of plot holders in the possession of the Trustees.
