About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The Cleary Cemetery is an abandoned cemetery that served as a burial location for the residents of Cleary City, a gold mining town on Cleary Creek. At one time Cleary City had more than 1,000 inhabitants but by 1909 the partial exhaustion of the nearby gold mines caused a considerable decrease in the population. The ghost town of Cleary City is located along the east side of the Steese Highway just south of The Chatanika Lodge. There are no longer any buildings left standing. The Cleary Cemetery is up the mountain side above the old city and in years since it has sadly fallen into disrepair. There is only one marker left standing, a marble military marker. Access to the cemetery and to the old townsite is across private gold mining claims and is fairly difficult to hike to. Permission should be obtained from private land owners before accessing.
