The Tung Sen Cemetery is owned and operated by the Tung Sen Benevolent Association of San Francisco, CA. Its specific purpose is to serve as a cemetery for Chinese Americans whose families originate in what was formerly known as Lung Doo Subdistrict, Chungshan County (now located in Shaxi and Dachong Towns, Zhongshan City), Guangdong Province, China.
The association purchased 4.9 acres of land in San Mateo County in 1936. However, due to insufficient funds and serious maintenance needs, a second fundraising campaign took place between 1945 and 1947. This campaign was followed by a cemetery renovation.
Twice a year, in the spring and autumn, the Tung Sen Association hosts ceremonies in which family members of those buried in the cemetery honor their deceased loved ones with incense, food, wine, and other offerings.
