Peake cemetery is located in Section 30 of Rusco Township, about 7 1/2 miles
north of Riverdale, on Riverdale Road between 220th and 225th Road.
The church was built in 1906 and was called St. Paul's. The first grave was
before the Church or cemetery was organized. A baby died and was buried in the
place which was later organized into the cemetery. There are three graves without
markers. One has a headstone but no names. -- From Fort Kearny Genealogical Society
