In the 1940s several dozen families of deported Lithuanians, Moldavians and Soviet Germans lived in Belostok village. The forced settlers were buried in the forest, 50 metres from the village graveyard. Those who died were buried in individual graves and crosses were placed over them. The exact numbers of men, women and children who lie there is not known. Local residents call this the “Russian” graveyard as distinct from the village Polish graveyard.

In 1950 the graveyard was accidentally destroyed by a drunk tractor driver and the crosses were subsequently used as fuel. At present the graveyard is covered with young trees and bushes.
