ODDFELLOWS CEMETERY, SILVER PLUME, COLORADO

This cemetery is located on the south side of I-70, on a knoll overlooking Silver Plume, Colorado. The map above shows its relationship to the other 6 adjoining cemeteries. I have used bolded fonts in different colors to indicate a group of graves.

Please note that the border between the Knights of Pythias Cemetery and the adjoining Oddfellows Cemetery is fuzzy. You should check both Cemeteries and don't assume that a person is KP or IOOF just because I have them listed under that cemetery.
