Contributed by Anne Braun, May 01, 2001, edited Jan 13, 2005 [annieb1961@comcast.net]. Total records = 41.

2 miles east of Olso on Highway #1 and 1 mile south on County Road #9. It is about 2 miles west of Alvarado.

The name of this cemetery has been changed from Elden to Mesopotamia.

This cemetery was owned by the Mesopotamia Lutheran Church. It is a prairie pioneer cemetery with the first listed burial in 1880 and the last burial taking place in 1990.

I visited and read this cemetery on Apr 25, 2001.
