Buried at the Bearcreek Cemetery are people of many nationalities who came here as coal mining families in the early 1900s. The first person interred at the cemetery, according to date of death records, was Helen Markovich, who was laid to reast after her death Nov. 21, 1909. There are, however, several unmarked and undated graves at the cemetery.
Bearcreek Cemetery burial records list 23 of the 74 miners killed in the Feb. 27, 1943 Smith Mine. The victim and the accused in a 1923 Bearcreek pool hall murder are buried at the cemetery. Walter Brown was the victim, Joe Naglich committed the crime. Naglich was sentenced to prison for life, but was later pardoned. Also buried at the cemetery is Chris Bonovich, who was shot and killed in 1921 in a boarding house brawl at upper Washoe. Stephan Novoda did the shooting. He was convicted of manslaughter and received a 3-6 year sentence.
In all, as of 2004, there were 434 identifiable graves at the Bearcreek Cemetery.
