A guide to Spokane's historic cemeteries

A guide to Spokane's historic cemeteries

John Caskey
Book - 2012

Bob Dylan noted of cemeteries, "the past doesn't pass away so quickly here." Whether you come to Spokane's historic cemeteries as a mourner, for a moment of solitude, for poetic inspiration, as a visitor, or as a historical investigator, time indeed does not "pass away so quickly here." This guide will assist both the genealogist and the reflective visitor in a definitive stroll through sixty historic and three pet cemeteries in the Spokane County areas. It also has a wealth of information on the history of interesting people buried there and stories of long forgotton burial grounds. From back cover.
