ANGEL RIDGE ROAD CEMETERY
Nez Perce County, Idaho

This cemetery is in Northern Idaho. Canvassed by Jacque HOPKINS and Peggy Lou CHATHAM HOPKINS, March 1997.

Directions: From Highway 95 from Craigmont, Idaho, turn right on Ruebens/Gifford Road. Go 4.4 miles past town of Ruebens (population abt 80) & turn right on Melrose Road. (There is a larger cemetery on this road, I didn't canvass it.) Go 4.1 miles to end of pavement. Turn left on Angel Ridge Road. Go 4.9 miles to cemetery. This last stretch of road is narrow, winding & unpaved. There are only 10 graves - all but one are marked & readable. They are all in a row in the corner of a farmer's crop field, right next to the road.
