According to a book on Beltrami County's townships called Up North researched by Louis Marchand and the Beltrami County Historical Society, Turtle Lake township already had a homesteader in 1877, Joachim Cyr, who was probably also the earliest county homesteader. He also platted the townsite of Turtle Lake. James Cyr is buried in the cemetery. There are numerous unmarked graves. The oldest stone is that of Lora M. Gizner (Peterson)(1895-1915) (and three Lund children Leo Orla, Palma Marie, and Felix Vernon who all died on April 28 1915 in a house fire.) The cemetery was read by Richard Rolling, Nancy Wendlandt, Dave Weiss, and Kay Weiss on June 1 1983. It was read and updated on October 10, 2003 by Cecelia Wattles McKeig.
