Location: The cemetery is located between Royal City and Othello, north of highway 282. East from Royal City on highway 282, go approximately 7 1/2 miles and turn north on highway 26. After 3 1/2 miles, turn east on 12 SE for one mile, then north on B SE for one mile. The cemetery is located on the west side of the road. The cemetery was organized in 1912 as Pleasant Valley Cemetery. The following is from the plaque at the cemetery. “Pioneer Memorial Cemetery. This cemetery was dedicated in 1912 by the homesteaders who first settled in this area. These pioneers cleared the land of sagebrush and dry farmed. The spring winds and drought of those early days forced many of the families to leave, and many of their loved ones were left behind here. Rededicated by the member of the Pleasant Valley Cemetery Association in 1973.”
The cemetery is cleaned and cared for by the Cemetery Association. Some unmarked graves are noted with funeral home markers that are unreadable, at least two wooden markers are unreadable, plastic flowers, empty glass jars in the ground, etc.

The table SEARCH box on the top right can also be used to search for data in ANY column. No need to use ‘wildcards’ in your search, the filters do that automatically, therefore don’t put too much info in any filter box; it could cause nothing to be found; start with just a few characters in the search boxes (like: jone for searching for Jones, Edward C. in the NAME column filter box), then add more characters or use other column filters to narrow your search.
