SWEDEBURG CEMETERY located in the NW 1/4 NW 1/4 of Section 9, Township 13N, Range 7E, Richland Township of Saunders County, Nebraska. This cemetery does not have perpetual care, thus weeds were above the knee in most cases, and it is possible that a flat marker could have been missed. Recorded by Clarabelle Mares 1722 East 19 Fremont, NE 68025 assisted by Kathrine Petersen and recorded on 4 August 1978. Covenant Church in Swedeburg.
