Historical Background
Khristovoye Cemetery was established in 1909 by the Christian Community of Universal Brotherhood ("CCUB") to serve the Khristovoye settlement area. After the demise of the CCUB in 1937-1939, the cemetery continued to be used by its successor organization, the Union of Spiritual Communities of Christ ("USCC") until the 1950s. It is no longer in active use. It is privately owned and maintained by the USCC Cemetery Association. Note this cemetery is also known as London Cemetery or Outlook Cemetery owing to its proximity to London Village and to Outlook Mountain, British Columbia.
Layout
The cemetery is approximately one acre in size and is partially enclosed by a wire fence with an open gate in the south-east corner. It is located on a hillside. The cemetery contains approximately 133 interments in a single section comprised of several rows facing east-west. The vast majority of graves (126) have no marker and the mounds have been leveled. I have used burial records, death registrations and oral tradition to identify these. With respect to graves with markers, the markers are typically plain slate, marble or concrete upright headstones or flat markers set flush to the ground. Click here for an online cemetery map.
Driving Directions
To access the cemetery, travel west from Grand Forks on Highway No. 3. Turn right on North Fork Road and continue for approximately five kilometers (3.1 miles). Turn left on London Road and continue for approximately one kilometer (.6 mile). The cemetery is located on the right side of the road. The cemetery is on private property and permission to access should be obtained by the owners.
