Take Nez Perce Street from Hwy 155 into Nespelem, then onto Okanogan Street for about 2 blocks. Turn onto Joe Moses Road for about 4 miles of paved road, then about 1.6 miles of dirt road. Cemetery will be on left side of road on a hill, just past the farm on right.

I was told the cemetery is on the Albert Simpson land. I was unable to contact the family, because no one was home when I was there. It has been said there are more than one Simpson Cemetery, but this is the only one I found.

I walked and read this cemetery on Jun 24, 2003, using a digital camera and will share any photo I have with family. There were several unmarked graves, 2 stones I could not read.
