The Mowrer Cemetery is approx 1/2 mi. south of the crossroads of Highways 144 & 141. It is outside the city limits of Perry IA.

The Mowrer Cemetery dates back to 1865. It is still used today and is beautifully maintained. Most of the stones are in good shape.

A School house was on the site originally. One of the pupils was badly burned at her home and requested to be buried in the school yard. This started the cemetery. Mary Roberts daughter of J.H. and M. E. Roberts, died on 11 Feb 1865 aged 7y 9m 20d.

I walked this cemetery on Jun 08, 2000.
