Thanks to Ernest
Mae Seaholm these
photographs of tombstones were taken at the Clear Creek
Cemetery when it was cleaned and audited in 1989. Since
there are no obituraries for many of these people, we
thought that pictures of their stones might be helpful to
some of you. To see a listing of all known burial in this
cemetery go to Clear
Creek Cemetery.
