In 1949, deported Lithuanians were transported to the Irkutsk Region’s Cheremkhovsky district where they were allocated to various settlements . The number of Lithuanians in Uzky Lug has not been established. Those who died there were buried in a separate section of the village graveyard. In accordance with Catholic rites a marker and name plates were added to each grave.
In 2006, the cemetery was studied by Lithuanian researcher Gintautas Alekna. A photo survey was carried out, nine graves with markers were discovered, and a plan of the layout of the burials was made.
Research on the Genocide of the Lithuanian People (Lietuvos gyventoju Genocidas; 3 vols. 1999-2009) contains about 130,000 biographical entries (in Lithuanian). Volume 3 covers the period from 1948 onwards.
