[or-roots] Today Oct 18 2011

[SAWYER, Layne G]

Dale,

The Findagrave site often has pictures of the entrance to cemeteries, perhaps checking that would reveal the name of the cemetery.  Those that don’t have photos sometimes have at least a map attached to orient yourself from the road you were on when you encountered the site.

I got out just in time, I think.  I was in Walla Walla and went to a family reunion in Milton-Freewater on Oct. 1.  It was hot in Walla Walla while I was there but then on Monday we headed out toward Pendleton through Heppner.  It was starting to cool off and was quite pleasant.  By the time I got to Reno, Nevada it had dropped over 20 degrees.  On Thursday it snowed and when I left for home on Saturday, Oct. 8 the Sierras were all white.  Very nice to not have been snowed in as I was leery of that.
I bumped into an unmarked cemetery just a little North East of Heppner.  It was out in a field behind two fences.  I walked up to it and took a picture of one of the very large stones.  I don't know if I can attach pictures to this site or not.  I wish I knew the name of the cemetery and I also wish I would have written down the names I saw.  It wasn't very large but had a lot of stones in it.
Does anyone out there know the name of this cemetery?
