Freedensfeld, or Quast, Cemetery
T23N R33E Section 18 

This cemetery is on Quast Road, about ten miles north of Odessa in
S18 T23N R33E in Lincoln County. Follow Higway 21 north for a little
more than six miles, then bear to the right on Deife Road for about
four miles to Zagelow Road. Follow Zagelow east one mile to Quast Road.
The cemetery lies just north of that intersection on the west side of
the road.

The cemetery is fenced and high over the gate in wrought iron letters
is the name 'Freedensfeld.' At one time the cemetery may have been
rectangular but now is straight on the road side and curved on the
field side. The ground is bare, apparently the soil has been sterilized.
There are humps indicating a few more burials than the stones indicate.
Two graves are marked with funeral home placards, but there is no data.

The cemetery was read on Oct. 10, 1999 by Pat Rice and Marge Womach.
The  stones, beginning at the south end of the cemetery, are:
