Mr. Painter and his wife, Pat, showed us the location of the cemetery. Directions from Sandpoint are: Take Highway 200 into Clark Fork City. Once in the city limits turn to your right on Stevens Street and follow it toward the railroad tracks and river. When you cross the tracks take the road to the left which will go to the old Clark Fork Bridge across the river. The bridge is safe for travel even though it may not look it. Once across the bridge follow the road to your left for about 7 miles and you will notice a road goes to your left. There is a sign indicating the Cabinet Fish Hatchery is this direction. Follow this road for about 2 or 3 miles and you will notice a sign to the fish hatchery points to the road going to the left that crosses the tracks. Do not take this road. Stay on the main road and continue on. A short distance from there you will see a road to your right that goes up the hill toward a lodge. Follow this road just past the lodge and you will notice some hound dog kennels on your right. The cemetery is just past these dog kennels on the right side of the road and is very hard to see. The cemetery is in it’s natural state. Many of the stones are overgrown and many of the burial sites are not marked. f/p Family Plot Harris, Alice Elnora 08-05-1859 09-20-1939 Harris, Charles Henry 12-27-1855 01-10-1935 Harris, Edgar Earl 03-02-1930 05-05-1945 Harris, Richard E 1939 02-19-1952 Kojander, Charles 06-13-1887 02-20-1933 f/p 3 Kojander, Elsie 10-04-1886 10-1970 f/p 3 Kojander, Hilda 02-20-1865 02-10-1924 f/p 3 Lloyd, Donald 11-26-1930 09-04-1940 Lloyd, William Thomas 01-26-1875 11-23-1943 Maki Victor 1884 06-15-1923 Painter, Charles Ray 12-07-1895/6 03-25-1969 Payne, Barry Edward 1939 11-30-1940 Payne, William Henry 09-07-1889 03-19-1939 Peterson, Paul Percival 09-20-1932/3 12-22-1933/40 Silta, Antti (Andrew) 09-16-1873 05-03-1944 Unknowns (possible Chinese Railroad workers)
