Introduction |
Latah Cemetery Association Cemetery Aka:Latah Municipal Cemetery, Latah IOOF Cemetery Latah, WA Lat: 47° 16' 56"N, Lon: 117° 07' 35"W Transcribed by Maggie Rail, Jan 29, 2000, updated Nov 29, 2016 [mrail@asisna.com]. Total records = 578. The Latah Cemetery Association Cemetery is located on Knight Road 1½ mile east of Latah. To reach it from the main highway through town, take the Market Road east to Knight Road. At the start this cemetery was known as Latah IOOF Cemetery and supervised by the IOOF Lodge in Latah, WA. In 1937 the town of Latah purchased the cemetery from the lodge and it became known as The Latah Municipal Cemetery. In recent years it has become known as The Latah Cemetery Association Cemetery. My first transcription was from Sexton files, back in 1998. I have since walked this cemetery using my digital camera, with readings from all of the headstones. Additional information as to location is from cemetery sexton records. Listings without locations are the newer burials since I acquired the sexton records. This is still incomplete as far as the missing records which were not kept in the early years of this cemetery. I walked this cemetery Aug 25, 2002. I have a photo of most existing headstones. I am willing to share for a small fee, if anyone is interested in a digital photo. Additional names added since from obits. - Maggie Rail Earliest birth listed - 1809 Earliest death listed - 1882 Latest death listed - 2016 s/w = same stone as S/L/G = Sect/Lot/Grave d/o = daughter of h/o = husband of c/o = child of s/o = son of w/o = wife of b. = born |
