The persons listed here are those who have lived part of their lives in Boudary County, or are associated with it in some way. Whether they lived many years in Boundary Co, or just a few, they have enriched our history, and we are grateful for their influence.

We know quite a bit about some of them, such as Martha Doust, buried in Paradise Valley Cem. Martha was born 4 Dec 1844 in Ont Can, the daughter of Ezekial McConnell, of Ireland. She married Edwin Doust, and died 7 Oct 1926.

Others remain nameless, such as the numberless Chinese who died working on the railroad, who are buried in a common grave at Crossport.

These cemetery records are taken from the following sources:

    Boundary Co. Free Museum, repository for Boundary County Historical Association,
    and their publication, Boundary County History Book

    Death Records - Boundary Co. ID 1907-1988 compiled by Twila J. Stone;

    Boundary Co. ID Cemeteries compiled by Alfred E. and Betty J. Shane;

    Sextons of the various cemeteries, including family cemeteries.

    Obituaries from the local newspapers, including those posted on the Internet. Online obituaries are from 2004-2006, and include links to find them.

    And just walking the cemeteries, looking at headstones and fighting mosquitos!
