Transcribed from "Columbia River Cemeteries", a record of individuals
moved from the banks of the Columbia River to make way for the rising
flood waters of Lake Roosevelt, published in the 1976 book, "Stevens County
Tombstone Inscriptions" by EWGS, Spokane WA., who acquired this record
from the Spokane Garry Chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution.
This cemetery is now located underneath the Columbia River. In approximately
1939-40, after the Grand Coulee Dam was built, the waters were raised,
thus flooding the cemetery. Before the waters were raised, the Bureau
of Reclamation, of the U.S. Department of the Interior, was responsible
for relocating the burials. Many were moved to New Inchelium Cemetery,
some were moved elsewhere. Ball & Dodd was hired to do the removals.
Note the location of Hall Creek Tribal Cemetery, it is #25 on Ball
& Dodd Map.
Additional listings from old St Michael's Mission death records are included.
These are followed by an asterisk *, their gravesites were not identified.
The cemetery where many of these were moved to is now called the Hall
Creek Cemetery.
"M/T" means "moved to", and the Plot numbers refer
to the location in the new cemetery.
