This is a complete file of known burials, total records 104. In addition, there are two plaques listing forty-nine people who are buried here, disinterred from their original burial sites but their names are unknown. The Wapato Point Cemetery is located on E. Wapato Way at Mill Bay Resort near Manson. Sometime around 1886 a Catholic Church was built on John Wapato's allotment and the cemetery was placed next to their church. The church burned down in 1953 as the result of an airplane accident and took with it all existing records of the cemetery. First burials were primarily that of the Wapato family who are descendants of Chief Moses. Originally members from the Moses Band, they later became part of the Colville Indian tribe. In addition to the following records there are two plaques for forty-nine people who are buried here, disinterred from their original burial sites but their names are unknown. In collecting the data the following resources were used: headstone inscriptions, obituaries, newspaper articles and the Higgins Mortuary records dating 1900 - 1943. There are no sexton records available for this cemetery. A publication is available containing additional information regarding the Mt. Olivet Cemetery, Fraternal Cemetery, Riverview Cemetery, and the Wapato Point Cemetery, Chelan Valley Cemeteries 1891 - 2000.
