This information was originally posted to the WALEWIS-L mailing list and has been added to the Lewis Co., WA GenWeb database with the kind permission of the original poster, Sharon. Here is Sharon's introduction to the list:

"When the dam was built and the graves moved to other cemeteries, there was a list put out by the (I believe) Army Corp of Engineers. There were 221 graves moved from Riffe Cemetery."

RIFFE CEMETERY GRAVE LIST NEW LOCATION

Shown on the lists are the approximate sizes of markers or a description of other grave identifications. Some of the identifications are rather vague and may or may not prove out as the work progresses. Included in the lists are the cemeteries in which reinterment is scheduled. The destinations indicated are presumed to be final but it may develop that some changes may be made as the project develops. The bulk of the reinterments will be made in Lewis County Cemetery District's cemeteries, with all but 114 of these being at the Doss cemetery. The remainder will be reinterred in private or independently operated cemetery organizations. The graves which are to be reinterred in these private cemeteries have been recapitulated for convenience. The cemetery name shown in parentheses is that which is used in the Riffe Cemetery grave list.
