Background:

Vest Grave, Joseph Creek, Asotin County, WA, Location: In SE corner of NW 1/4, Sec 10, T6N, R46E., W.M.

A lone grave of a young girl between 12 and 16 years old, in a field on Joseph Creek, has all but disappeared over the years. Young Annie Vest died and was buried there before 1900. Very little at this late date can be learned about her.

The grave is located in the Heimark field (also known as the Rogers field), about 150 feet from the Joseph Creek Road, and some 50 feet from the south edge of the field. The grave was on the old Bly-Edgmand place, now owned by the Magden family. It is at the 1/2 way mark between mile post 30 and 31.
