Description

Description from Find-A-Grave: The Lakewood/Steilacoom Masonic Cemetery is 11 acres in size, located at 120th St. SW and Farwest Dr. SW in the SW corner of the city of Lakewood. The west and south property lines of the cemetery bound the Fort Lewis Military Reservation at almost its most northerly extent, about 1.5 miles SE of the town of Steilacoom. The cemetery can be reached from Military Road via Farwest Dr SW. You can also take Gravely Lake turn off from I-5, go to Washington Blvd, continue until you get to 83rd Avenue it should be on that corner. Steilacoom Lodge has maintained a cemetery on the outskirts of the town of Steilacoom since 1883. The cemetery can be found at the intersection of Farwest Drive and Masonic Road in what is now the town of Lakewood. The 11 acre plot of land for the cemetery was obtained from the Orr family, who are interred at the western edge of the property. Several of the town’s most notable citizens are buried here, including the Bair family, the Light family, Thomas Chambers, Royal Gove, the Saltar family, and several others. The Masonic graves are located in the northern half of the cemetery, while the southern half contains a non-Masonic section. The upkeep of the cemetery is provided by the members of Steilacoom Lodges. The cemetery is kept secured by fence and lock in order to keep vandals out and preserve the dignity and character of the cemetery. It is a solemn, peaceful, and beautiful place. Arrangements can be made to visit the cemetery by emailing the Master or Secretary of Steilacoom Lodge.
