[or-roots] Cemetery North East of Heppner

[Glen Jones]

Another place online to check would be the Oregon Gravestone Project. 

and if you can get to a Library check the Oregon Burial Guide the cemetery 

may be listed their.

Both good ideas, thanks.

Dale, the other option would be to list the name of the headstone that you photographed and perhaps someone in that area would recognize it OR search find-a-grave for that name and if it is listed, find the name of the cemetery where it is buried. 

http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ormorrow/morrow_county_oregon_cemeteries.htm   Also many of the Morrow County Cemeteries have been transcribed and you might find the name there.

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?
