REARDAN CEMETERY AND OBITUARIES

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reardan Cemetery is located at the Southeast edge of Reardan in the NW1/4 of SE1/4 of Sec. 15 Twp 25N Range 39EWM. Also known as the Reardan IOOF Cemetery, it was dedicated in September of 1894 though the oldest marker is dated 1885 . In the 1911 Atlas it is on page 121 and the 1960 Atlas it is listed on page 69. I grew up in Reardan & my dad had the cemetery records. I have added names, obits, and other information of the people buried there. I included all the burials, and then included the obits that I have. There are 3 burials which were not in the cemetery records (Byrd, Dittmar, and Brandenberg) but according to death records, etc, they are buried at the Reardan Cemetery. All 3 died before the big Reardan fire, so I was thinking maybe some of the cemetery records were lost in the fire.

Leading Citizen of Reardan Dies. Although of more than ordinary physical
structure and possessed of vigorous mental power, the life of M. Moriarity, one
of the great men of Lincoln County, failed to withstand an attack of acute
rheumatism lasting several weeks and made its exit from this earth Tuesday
night, leaving hundreds of afflicted and mourning friends. Having come to
Reardan 22 years ago, Mr. Moriarity was one of the builders of this section and
never failed to exercise his powers for the advancement of the county. In this
he was aided by a strong executive ability and a commanding influence that
placed him at the head of the many great enterprises at which he directed his
attention. His death is not only an irreparable loss to his family but to his
city, county and state. In and around his hometown he was a main stay and
without his forethought many of its lasting benefits would have never been
realized. Mr. Moriarity came to this state from MN. At one time he acted as
postmaster of Reardan and has held many positions of public trust, including a
service of several years as mayor of his town. In business affairs he rose to
the top and financially he met with success. He was president of the Reardan
Exchange Bank, pres. of the Washington Grain & Milling Co, and vice-pres. of
the Chamokane Lumber Co. In the first named institution, he held 155 out of 500
shares of stock issued, besides owning a great deal of farm land and city
property. He was 52 years of age and leaves a wife, Frances, and daughter, Ella.
The funeral will be held at Reardan Friday morning under the direction of the
Odd Fellows of which order he was a faithful and active member. [Davenport

for seven years and then leased a stock ranch near Sprague for 10 years. In 1931
he and Mrs. Napier purchased the Alexander property west of Odessa and moved to
this area. They retired to town in 1965. Mr. Napier was an internationally known

While at work Thursday afternoon last week at the farm of Otis Hanes, James
Nugent, well known in this vicinity for fifteen years, dropped dead of heart
failure. The body was brought to the Hard undertaking parlor the same evening.
Burial took place Sunday afternoon at the Reardan Cemetery, after a short
service at the grave conducted by Rev. John M. Thompson, Presbyterian minister.
Though Mr. Nugent numbered among his acquaintances almost everybody in the
Reardan country, so little was known of his history that the services were
necessarily brief, as no one could inform the minister of the particulars of his
life. Mr. Nugent was born at Dearborn, Michigan, about 73 years ago. It is
believed that shortly after his wife's death he was moved to leave Michigan,
whence he wandered over a great part of the western country. He was in the
cattle business before leaving Michigan. [Reardan Gazette. Edit: Burial occurred

(Age 91) Surrounded by his family, our beloved husband, father and granddad
passed away peacefully on February 12, 2007 in Spokane, Washington. He is
survived by his beloved wife of 43 years, Edna; his son and wife, Jerry and
Aileen Warner of Spokane; his son and wife, Denny and Lynn Warner of Simi
Valley, CA; and his daughter Kathy Dame of Fresno, CA. He has 11 grandchildren
and eight great-grandchildren who will also miss him dearly. Born April 8, 1915
in Glencoe, Oklahoma, he graduated from Oklahoma A&M with a degree in
Engineering. He spent his career working at Rocketdyne in California during the
era of the Apollo space program. After 29 years, he retired in 1968 to pursue
his passion for the great outdoors; a love he and Edna shared together. They
moved to Marvel, Colorado and spent 31 years camping, hunting, hiking,
backpacking, and teaching others about the wonders of nature. In addition to
being an avid outdoor adventurer, Roy was also a servant leader. He was active
in many organizations including: lifelong membership in the Methodist Church;
Masons since in 1957; Marvel Grange for 27 years; Marvel Volunteer Fire
Department for eight years; Red Cross; Farmington Rock Club; Durango Rock Club;
Jeep Club. He also volunteered for both 4-H and the Boy Scouts. He led many
youth on camping expeditions, serving as both mentor and friend. Known as a
"rock hound", one of his favorite activities was for himself, Edna and
friends to go adventuring in their Jeep throughout the canyon lands of Colorado,
New Mexico, Arizona and Utah and collect rocks. He was an exceptional craftsman
who turned nature into art in the form of jewelry, bookends and through his
talent as a silversmith and engraver. Roy holds a special place in the hearts of
all who knew him. We cherish our memories of him and with earnest pass onto
future generations the many things he taught us. A Memorial Service will be held
at Reardan United Methodist Church, 155 S. Oak St. in Reardan, WA on Thursday,

health for several years. He passed away in Spokane, September
