You can spend a lot of time looking through each and not find who you seek. They are only as good as the transcriber. They are only as good as the date and place of death, as older stones, plaques or cards disappear, damaged, destroyed, etc. AND, most are not fully transcribed. I'd look at Evergreen Cemetery, it has thousands of interments and only a few listed online. First, check with those in the family or having knowledge of them to see if they know where they are buried: --I found a family tree of Mardon4042 that identifies Ezra Frank Hopkins died on 4 May 1981 in Everett, born 26 Jan 1912 in Concrete, married to Donna Louise Swartwood, born 13 Feb 1916, died 22 OCt 1976 in Marysville, Snohomish Co, WA. --A 19gab40 also had this information. ----I sent a contact request to these two to help if they could. A ldyk171@yahoo.ca has these people in a family tree "possibly" owned by a Mary Swarthout Rindfleisch...also see: http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/h/o/e/Kathy-Hoeldke-/index.html Second, if you don't have the obit for them, that might also have the information you seek. Send a request...for free... to the Washington State Library for a search. Just send them the date of death, place of death: Contact them at: http://www.secstate.wa.gov/library/ask.aspx . Now, there are also volunteers in the Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness that can visit the cemeteries...do the initial lookups. READ THE GUIDELINES FIRST...you can't ask more than one at a time for help.
