It is located atop a hill, less than a quarter of a mile from the church itself, nestled among the wheat fields of Lincoln County. To get there, go west on Highway 2 from Davenport to Rocklyn Road, then south for six miles to Church Road. Take Church Road for a little over a mile to the cemetery. It is in T24N R36E S29 and still active. Carl and Dorothy Meilke hold the records. Because of the positioning of the stones, the cemetery was read beginning with the furthermost grave to the southwest, reading from south to north, and continuing as one would read a book. The listings are in the order that the stones appeared, when a stone number appears more than once, a shared stone is indicated. Use the search feature of your browswer, look under Edit then Find or Locate, type in the name you are looking for, and then OK. d/o = daughter of; s/o = son of; h/o = husband of; w/o = wife of; m=married; f/s = foot stone. Some of the graves had a flat table-top slab over the grave, as well as a headstone marker. Those are marked with t/t in notes column. The cemtery was read in September 1999 by Pat Rice, additional information from Marge Womach.
