Colfax Cemetery is located along State Highway 272, about 1 mile east of Main St. Colfax. It lies on the north side of the highway along Cemetery Rd.
Colfax Cemetery was established on September 11, 1882, as the cemetery for the City of Colfax. It is owned and operated by Whitman County Cemetery District #6. It remains in good condition and still in use. The first addition was made on July 07, 1905. The cemetery was originally only in Section 11 but now has several more additions and extends into both 11 and 12 sections. A wildland fire in 1926 burned the wooden tombstones and the cabin in which the cemetery records were kept.
