Notes from transcriber Maggie Rail, Sep 02, 2000, last edited Apr 29, 2011:

“This cemetery is one mile east of Chewelah on the Flowery Trail Road. It adjoins the Chewelah Pioneer Cemetery on the north side.”

“This cemetery is owned and maintained by Saint Mary of the Rosary Catholic Church in Chewelah. For more information you need to contact the church. I only have this listing.”

“I found a listing in 'Tombstone Inscriptions, Stevens county', pub. 1976 by EWGS. Names listed from this source have an asterisk * following the entry.”

“I used a digital camera to read the cemetery. If interested in a copy you may contact me. Not all took good photos. Some had to be written in a notebook, these Vicki Morris did. I have no photo for these or those with an asterisk.”

“I surveyed this cemetery on Aug 12, 2001.”
