YACOLT CEMETERY, Yacolt, Clark County, WA
The US GenWeb Archives provide genealogical and historical data to
the general public without fee or charge of any kind. It is
intended that this material not be used in a commercial manner.
Location: From City Hall go towards center of town and turn left
on Railroad Ave. Go .5 miles, the cemetery is on the left. Look
for the white fence.
History: The Yacolt Cemetery was established in 1913. The land
was donated to the city by James McCutchen, whose house still
stands down the road. James McCutchen is my greatgrandfather
and his headstone is a foursided one and the tallest in the
cemetery.
Submitted by Leanne Bodewig. Recorded with the help of my sons
and mother, Helen Buell on August 18, 2001.
[Some of the additional records are from Clark County Cemetery Records, Vol. 5
by the Clark County Genealogical Society, 1989. The included records here with
no markers had been compared with records at the Yacolt City Hall. All of these additional records are in brackets to identify them.]
