Cromwell Cemetery Hales Passage Scandinavian Lutheran Cemetery

Not far from Hales Passage near Gig Harbor, Washington, on a quiet country road lies the Cromwell Cemetery, also known as the Hales Passage Scandinavian Lutheran Cemetery. It is a fitting resting place for the Scandinavian fishermen and their families who first settled the Cromwell area.

The Cromwell Cemetery is a “Burial Only” cemetery; meaning that plots are available for purchase; the Cemetery does not conduct funeral services, dig the graves or install monuments or headstones.
