Notes from transcriber Maggie Rail (current as of November 2009):

Fraternity Cemetery is located at Lat 47° 38' 27"N, Lon 120° 03' 58"W, T26N R43E S27. 365 Rd O NW. Waterville, WA. (509) 745-8245.

This cemetery is located south of Waterville, just on the outskirts of town and is well maintained by the Douglas County Cemetery Associatin. A mausoleum is located at the top of the hill in the back part of the Waterville Cemetery.

I first visited this cemetery in 1999, returning in 2001 and 2002. These records are a combinatin of all my previous transcriptions along with Sexton files, provided me by Ken Borders, who works on the cemetery board for Douglas Cemetery District #2. In most cases, this gives us the location in the cemetery. In the first transcription they are separated into three areas, this has all in one listing, with location at the end of the entry. This transcription includes all records up through Sep 19, 2002. There is a possibility of duplicates.

This index is in English.

This index is open for research.
