The cemetery directions leaving from Greenbush on Hwy #11 driving west for 8 miles you will come to the cemetery on your right hand side (north) just off the highway. The large cemetery sign reads The United Free Lutheran Pauli Cemetery.

The established date 1898 on approx 1 31/32 acres of land acquired from John and Amoley Peterson. This cemetery had been known by the name of The Peterson Cemetery year of 1904. The Deed reads Petersons to the "Pauli Menighed" year of 1905. The 2nd Deed shows they now have 2 acres for Pauli Church and Cemetery. The church was moved out and now resides across the road at the Pelan Pioneer Park.

The United Free Lutheran Church holds the ownership at this time. The cemetery is in good condition, and is still used for burials.

I did a complete walk thru, reading all of the visible headstones. This is a complete transcript as of Apr 10, 2010. A digital camera has been used for pictures.

cemetery records

A free online library of cemetery records from thousands of cemeteries across the world, for historical and genealogy research.

What makes us Different?

Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
