Pleasant Valley Cemetery
Bluestem, Lincoln County WA
T24N R38E Section 27

This cemetery is found on Telecky Road 4 miles west of Hwy 231 and situated about 6 miles Northwest of Edwall, WA. in T24N R38E NE 1/4 Section 27. There is no name on it and very few graves left of the original pioneers who were buried here. The following is what I found when I read it on May 26, 1999.

I spoke with Mrs. Telecky on whose farm it is located. She says the reason for disbanning it was the rock shelf below the soil made it impossible to dig 6 feet for burial. None of the graves are that deep so many were moved to other cemeteries. There are some without head stones, but these still remain.
