Peshastin Cemetery

Located on the corner of North Road and Anderson Cyn Rd just outside of Peshastin. Originally named Booth Canyon after the family who first settled there it was later changed to Anderson Canyon after Adolph Anderson, a swede who first came to the area to work at the Blewett Mines. Jacob L. Foss, living near the mouth of the canyon, donated some land to the Peshastin Community for the cemetery.
