From Moses Lake proceed east on I-90 about three miles to exit 182. Go north on Road O NE about one and 1/2 miles to Road 2 NE. Go west about 1/2 mile. The cemetery is on the south side of the road.
Get permission at the Cemetery Office before entering or viewing the cemetery. IT IS ON PRIVATE LAND.
The cemetery was established in 1905 It was originally a one acre City Cemetery, aka Wheeler Cemetery. In the 1950s it was deeded to the Oddfellows who expanded it to about 9 acres. In 2001 it was purchased by the Benson Family. It has changed hands again, but the owners are not currently known. There are currently over 5000 burials listed.
The COLUMN SEARCH FILTER boxes above the data table are used for searching in any column of the data table. You can use any or all the boxes to limit your search. Use the ‘Clear Filters’ button to clear out any characters you have entered to start over. Use the bottom ‘Scroll Bar‘ to view more columns or the ‘More Details‘ button to display a window of the record’s data.
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.
You can PRINT, download in CSV or Excel format, or copy to the clipboard the displayed records. Use the ‘Show Entries’ pulldown to control how many rows of data to display on each page. Always check the print preview and verify the number of pages you want to print.
