Notes from transcriber Maggie Rail, August 2001:
To reach cemetery drive west on Pennsylvania Ave in Roslyn WA, hang left until you turn onto Memorial Road. Silvio Pellico Cemetery is just after the Polish Cemetery and before the I.O.O.F Cemetery. Lat: 47° 13' 11", Lon 121° 00' 00"W T20N R15E Sec 17. See map.

Silvio Pellico is an Italian Lodge, which was founded in 1908, and no longer exists in Roslyn. I was unable to find anyone connected with it. I would call it an abandoned cemetery.

I acquired the information I have presented here, from my reading of the headstones which was done when I visited the cemetery. I really think there are more buried here, if I could only find old records. I surveyed this cemetery on Aug 20, 2001, using pencil and pad, plus my digital camera. Transcribed Oct 21, 2001, last updated Oct 21, 2009.
