Snohomish Cemetery is the only cemetery within the city limits of Snohomish, not to be confused with the G.A.R. Cemetery (Grand Army of the Republic Cemetery). Snohomish Cemetery has been called variously as Pioneer Cemetery, Indian Cemetery, etc. Caucasian and Indian (Native American) remains were buried there until circa 1923. Here is the latest on this cemetery which has been in "debacle" over the many years after the 1947 cut through a portion of that cemetery was done for a Highway 2. A new bridge and access leaving the east side of the City of Snohomish, leaving a smaller north portion and a much larger south portion of the old cemetery that remained. The latter portion is the proposed site for a new Senior Center to replace the old house that has been the Senior Center atop the cemetery for so long a period of time. The location of this main portion site is located at 2nd St. and Cypress (near 2nd and Pine) Snohomish-the bridge and road that connects to Hwy 2 toward Monroe just outside the City.
