EVERGREEN CEMETERY, located on Aladdin Road north of Colville, Washington, has undergone significant changes in appearance and functionality in recent months.  Brush has been removed from the fence line along the frontage road so as to give the cemetery a more open look - both from the outside looking in, and from the inside looking out.  

A new sign board has been erected to give identity to the cemetery. Burials have been carefully indexed and then printed in alphabetical order, listing all known persons interred at the cemetery. The new sign board has the listings of burials identified by block number location. Block locations have been identified with marker stakes.  A map of the plots at the cemetery is provided on the sign board - all this to make it easier to find your ancestors who are buried here.

This pioneer cemetery is the burial place of soldiers who have fought in the Civil War, Spanish-American War, World War I, and World War II.  The cemetery is also the final resting place for many homesteaders  and early pioneers of the area.

Evergreen Cemetery is open to the public year-round for descendants to locate their ancestors.  We encourage you to come and visit.

Care and maintenance of the cemetery is provided by volunteer members of the Northeast Washington Genealogical Society. A fund has been set up at Bank of America to help with the upkeep and maintenance costs. Donations can be made by making your check out to Evergreen Restoration Fund and mailing to NeWGS, c/o Colville Public Library, 195 S. Oak, Colville, WA 99114.
