TRIBAL CEMETERY OF THE PALA NATION

record by Brian C. Smith
Labor Day, Monday, 3 September 1984

From the Mission, east on California State #78, right on first unpaved road; approximately 
3/10 mile from the Mission. There are a number of unmarked burials as well as burials with
markers badly weathered and unreadable. Most of these are well kept, with fresh flowers; 
they would appear to be known to and maintained by the families. All of the military 
and many of the unknown burials in both cemeteries were decorated with small American flags
and one may assume they are veterans. 


                                                                                    
     Rows are recorded west to east beginning at the south end of the cemetery.
