I'll check around to see if anyone knows where they are located, and get back. I'll post the question on orwashin-L@rootsweb.com .......the same place you can also get help. Can anyone provide directions to these cemeteries? I have one on the cemetery list named Richie Family, and another as Parsons AKA Richie. Seems they are the same cemetery. Thanks all.....and Happy New Year.

The Parsons Family Cemetery is also known as Oak Knoll Cemetery. It is located about two miles west of Forest Grove, now surrounded by the Hines Nursery. One must go to the office, located along Richtie Road, about a mile from the city limits, there ask persmission to enter. There will likely be no problem with this, but the Nursery must know who is entering the premesis. The cemetery was restored in 2000 by family members with assistance from the Nursery, and has markers for those that have been identified as being buried there. I have information on the other cemeteries mentioned in the e-mail, as well.Let me know closer to the time of your trip.
