About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Tacoma started as a train depot station in 1869. The Central Pacific Railroad used it during the Silver boom. The town started with about 100 residents, with most involved in maintenance for the railroad and a few working at nearby mines. The mines around Tecoma produced more than $40,000 worth of copper, but the town started to decline in the 1920s. In 1918 the town's hotel burned down and was not rebuilt. When Montello, 15 miles away, took over as the train stop in late 1920's Tacoma was abandoned. By 1930, most of the townÂ's residents had left and most of the stores had closed. Now only foundations and the town cemetery remain.
