Detailed Information
Located just west of Yale, on the Trans Canada Highway, the cemetery was established in 1858. The original cemetery was located next to Yale Creek but the discovery of gold nearby lead the miners to relocate the four original graves to their present location in order to extract gold from the area. A variety of unique and interesting headstones date from 1863 right up to present day.
