Contributed by Beth Gillis, Jun 22, 2006 [rbgillis@ruraltel.net]. Total records = 16.

To reach this cemetery from Athol, from K8 & US 36 Hwy go north on K8 for 5 miles to 120 Rd. Go East to I Rd. Go North 1/4 mile and it sits on west side of the road.

This cemetery is owned and maintained by the Zion Lutheran Church. It dates back to the early 1900s and is still used today. It is very neat and well maintained.

Robert Gillis and I visited this cemetery in May of 2006. This includes all visible and legible stones or markers.
