The location of this cemetery is unknown to me. I have heard it might be next to the Spangle Cemetery, and also it might be on the Spokane County Farm which was right near there.
These names were taken from the Spangle Broadacres hospital death records book which was the Funeral Ledger kept from Jan 01, 1927 to May 28, 1929.
J.S. McCormack was the one who ordered all the arrangements in this book. Each one died at the hospital at Broadacres in Spangle WA.
The farm owned by the county, which held the hospital and over 20 buildings on 240 acres of land was sold in 1945 to the Seventh Adventist Church for their Upper Columbia Academy. In my inquiries, no one seems to know anything about a cemetery on that land, unless I am searching in the wrong places.
I have held these names too long, and am unable to state where the County Cemetery actually is. In the book it would name the various local cemeteries as the place they each one was taken, but on all of these, it simply said County Cemetery. I listed a few names which were found elsewhere and I know they died on the farm but not able to find out where they are buried.
