Made available to The USGenWeb Archives by: Cindy Kay Mount Vernon Township Cemetery. Located just off Cty Rd 25 behind a grove of cypress trees. It is on the left side if you coming up the hill from Minneiska Minnesota and on the right (just before you descend the hill) if you are coming from Rollingstone. Watch closely or you'll miss it! NOTE: Many of the markers have a small, narrow white cement stone either leaning against them or somehow attached to the grave with the person's initials. This may indicate a "potter's field" situation where - after the family could afford one - they put up a tombstone with dates, etc. Transcription done November 13, 1999 by Cindy Kay.
