ST. JOHN’S LUTHERAN CEMETERY A number of the stones are missing some of which are known because of records of the church. The rows run north and south and the lots numbered in the church records. The back of the cemetery contains older stones somewhat scattered as if there are several missing. Many of the stones particularly the back area are in German. Prior to this reading done by Fern Tripcony in 1997 Marjorie Kite had read them in the early 1960’s The entries with an N in the row column are ones read by Mrs Kite of which there is no longer record.
