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.

On August 17, 1959, 28 people were killed when an earthquake caused a landslide burying them where they were camped. The massive rockslide entombed them. A memorial was dedicated one year later with their names inscribed on a plaque on a mammoth dolomite boulder.
