Marked on the stone: George Washington Mclelland Sept 1852 Aug 1911
This is another of those old cemeteries in rural eastern Oregon. This one dates back to 1873 but unlike many of the others out in this back country it is still well maintained. There are several other Woodmen of the World markers in this cemetery including George McClelland's wife's Neighbors of the Woodcraft marker next to his. (as seen in the photos)
Interestingly, there is another cemetery on the opposite side of the county road that belongs to the Methodist Church. It dates a little earlier but is no longer maintained and has no Woodmen graves.
