To reach the cemetery turn west off of Hwy #21 at Curlew, taking the Curlew to Toroda Hwy, which heads northwest. It is just a few miles and on the east side of the road. Just like it sounds, up on the hill overlooking the valley.

This seems to be the cemetery for the Toroda Creek area. 1907 is the earliest burial in this listing, however there well may be some earlier. I found evidence which led me to believe there could be many unmarked graves. The most recent was in 1998.

I have compiled the following from my survey when I walked this cemetery Jul 19, 2001. I then tried to find missing names in previous works, but found no new entries. With as many unreadable markers as I saw, the great amount of empty space in the cemetery where it looked like there might be unmarked burials and knowing the history of the area, it seems logical there are many names missing from this work.
