CEMETERY: London-Deer Creek, Worth County, Iowa LONDON-DEER CREEK CEMETERY Deer Creek Township, Worth County, Iowa Information Contributed by Diane Oldfather This cemetery is in two locations actually. When the Deer Creek Lutheran Church was first built the burials were in the area next to it. It was discovered that the area was too wet and so the cemetery was moved about one mile south of it--into Iowa. The church, with about 14 graves (marked with an asterisk "*") are in section 33 of London Township, in Minnesota. The rest of the cemetery is in section 17 of Deer Creek Township--just across the border into Iowa.
