Zion Cemetery is located two miles east of Beiseker on Provincial highway # 9 on the north side of the road just past the local airport.

This cemetery is situated on 2 acres of land donated by pioneer farmer, Peter M. Berreth in 1918.

I first walked this cemetery on Jul 20, 2002, and rewalked it with my wife Chris Schmidt on Aug 25, 2002.

The earliest recorded burial is in 1919 and the cemetery is still in use today. All known or visible burials are listed. There are six suspected burial plots that have no markers to indicate who is buried them.
