Historical Background

Koch Siding Cemetery, as it was originally known, was established in 1914 by the by the Christian Community of Universal Brotherhood (“CCUB”) to serve the Koch Siding settlement. Since 1923, the cemetery has been known as Slocan Park Doukhobor Cemetery, after the nearby community of Slocan Park. Located along the Slocan River valley, it is sometimes also known as Valleyview Cemetery. Following the demise of the CCUB in 1937-1939, Slocan Park Doukhobor Cemetery continued to be used by its successor organization, the Union of Spiritual Communities of Christ (“USCC”). It is still in active use today. It is owned and maintained by the USCC Cemetery Association.

The cemetery is approximately three acres in size and is not enclosed. The cemetery contains approximately 314 interments in a single section comprised of seven rows facing east-west. Many of the graves (90) have no marker and the mounds have been leveled.

Tolstoy Cemetery – Veregin District, Saskatchewan

The following is a transcription of the Tolstoy Doukhobor Cemetery located 8 miles north of Veregin, Saskatchewan. Rural Municipality of Keys No. 303. Land location: NW 27-31-1 West of Second. Latitude: 51°41.543. Longitude: 102°03.928. Transcribed by Jonathan J. Kalmakoff on July 11, 2004.

View from the southwest of the cemetery facing northeast.

Historical Background

Tolstoy Cemetery was established in 1918 by Independent Doukhobors living in the district north of Veregin, Saskatchewan. It was incorporated as Tolstoy Cemetery Company in 1922. It was named after Count Leo Tolstoy (1828-1920), Russian novelist, social reformer and benefactor of the Doukhobors. Several Ukrainian and Czechoslovakian settlers are also buried in the cemetery. The cemetery is still in active use today and is privately owned. It is well maintained.

Layout

The cemetery is approximately one acre in size and is enclosed by a wire fence. There is an iron gate on the north side and an open gate on the east side. The cemetery contains 71 interments in a single section comprised of ten rows facing east-west. Five of the graves have no marker and the mounds have been leveled. There are considerable gaps between the marked graves which would suggest many additional unmarked graves, however, it would appear that most of these are empty spaces between family plots. With respect to graves with markers, the markers are typically plain, upright marble or slate headstones.  Click here for an online cemetery map.

Driving Directions

To access the cemetery, travel north from the junction of Highway No. 5 and the Village of Veregin Exit on gravel Secondary Route No. 637 for 7 3/4 miles (12.5 km). Then turn west and continue on the gravel road for 1/2 mile (.8 km). The cemetery is on the south side of the road allowance. This cemetery is on private property and permission to access should be obtained by the owners.

Verigin’s Memorial Park – Brilliant, British Columbia

The following is a transcription of Verigin’s Memorial Park located at Brilliant, British Columbia. Land location: Sub-lot 28, Block 10, Kootenay District, Plan 2938. Latitude: 49°19.163. Longitude: 117°37.889. Transcribed on October 15, 2006 by Lawrna Myers with additional information by Jonathan J. Kalmakoff. 

View from Terrace Road overlooking Verigin’s Memorial Park from the north facing south.

Historical Background

Verigin’s Tomb, as it was originally known, contains the remains of five individuals who played a prominent role in Doukhobor history. It was established in 1924 with the interment of Doukhobor leader Peter Vasilevitch Verigin. His son, Peter Petrovich Verigin is also buried in the tomb, along with the wives of both Verigins, Evdokia Grigoryevna and Anna Fyodorovna. The final resting place of Anna Petrovna Markova, the daughter of Peter P. Verigin and the mother of USCC Honorary Chairman John J. Verigin is just south of the tomb in the Memorial Park. Through the years, the tomb has been a focal point in Doukhobor life and conflict. In 1931, it was bombed for the first of many times by Sons of Freedom. More recently, in the spirit of reconciliation taking place within the larger Doukhobor community, Doukhobors from all societies and groups have gathered here to help maintain the beautiful grounds, and to hold prayer meetings and remembrance services. In 2005, Verigin’s Tomb was renamed the Verigin’s Memorial Park. It is owned and administered by the Union of Spiritual Communities of Christ.

Layout

Verigin’s Memorial Park is located on the lower slope of Sentinel Mountain overlooking the Kootenay River, the historic Brilliant Suspension Bridge, recently designated as a national heritage site, and the Doukhobor communities of Ooteshenia and Brilliant. A massive overhanging rock face above it is engraved with the eulogy of Peter Vasilevitch Verigin. The grounds comprise two acres of old-fashioned gardens enclosed by a wire fence. Stones outline the initials of the leaders and the flower beds, and there is a gazebo. A small building houses a visitor’s centre. During the summer months, Doukhobor tour guides are on hand. A well-tended rose garden surrounds the tomb, which was originally an elaborate marble edifice with intricate carvings, but was replaced in 1931 with a plain concrete structure. The Memorial Park contains five graves.

Driving Directions

From Highway 3A on the north end of Castlegar, turn north on Robson Access Road and travel approximately 1.2 km. Then turn right on Terrace Road and travel approximately 1.0 km up the mountain. There is a parking area on the right hand side of the road, from which one can then walk down to the Memorial Park.

Historical Background

Salmo Doukhobor Cemetery was established in 1937 by the Salmo Doukhobor Society for its members. Located near Boulder Creek, it is also known as Boulder Creek Cemetery. It is in active use and is owned and maintained by the Society. The cemetery is in very good condition.

Layout

The cemetery is 2.5 acres in size and is enclosed by a wire fence with a single iron gate. The cemetery contains 173 interments in two sections comprised of twenty rows facing east-west. Approximately 53 of the graves have no marker, however, many of the mounds are still clearly visible. I have used death registrations 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 from Salmo, travel north from the Highway No. 3 junction on Highway No. 6 for approximately 7 km (4.4 miles). The cemetery is on the left (west) side of the road allowance.

View of the cemetery from the northeast corner facing southwest.

Historical Background

Kirilowka (aka Kirilovka) Cemetery was established in 1899 by the Doukhobors of Kirilovka village near Langham. After the abandonment of the village in 1917, the cemetery continued to be used by local Doukhobors and is still in active use today. It is privately owned and maintained by a cemetery committee. The cemetery is in very good condition.

Layout

The cemetery is one acre in size and is enclosed by a wire fence. There is a single iron gate on the west side. The cemetery contains 130 interments in a single section comprised of nine rows facing east-west. Approximately fifty-two of the graves have no marker and the mounds have been leveled. I have used death certificates and oral tradition to identify 17 of these. The remaining 35 unmarked graves are unidentified. 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 the Town of Langham on Highway No. 16 for 3 1/2 miles (5.6 km). The cemetery is located at the southeast corner of the junction of Highway No. 16 and Range Road No. 3082.  The cemetery is on private property and permission to access should be obtained by the owners.
