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. Red Men Lodge Cemetery will be the fourth cemetery on your left between Silvio Pellico Cemetery and IOOF Cemetery. Lat: 47° 13' 10"N, Lon: 121° 00' 03"W Lat: 47° 13' 10"N, Lon: 121° 00' 03"W. See map.

This was Wahptus (Waptus) Tribe No. 28, Improved Order of Red Men. The tribe was instituted Jul 23, 1898 in Roslyn, disbanded in 1950.

I acquired the information I have presented from my reading of the headstones which was done when I visited the cemetery. I found no one who had the Sexton files, nor a contact person. I surveyed this cemetery on Aug 20, 2001, using pencil and pad, plus my digital camera.
