Burial list of Stella(Weist) Cemetery transcribed and submitted by Dan York, November 2001. Both above notices must remain when copied or downloaded. -------------------------------------------------------------------- The Stella Cemetery is located on the John Weist homestead on a hill above the town of Stella, Washington. The first of 46 known burials was in 1873. I walked the cemetery on November 11, 2001. There are only a few headstones that I have listed. I went to the county auditors office and copied the rest of the known burials that do not have markers. To reach the cemetery, head West out of Longview, Washington towards Long Beach Washington, approximately 14 miles you enter Stella. Turn RIGHT on Stella Road; app.8/10 mile turn LEFT onto Fall Creek Rd., app. 1/10 mile on left is a gate that leads to Stella Cemetery.
