Founded in 1875, Union Cemetery is a large, rural, well maintained, active cemetery.
This is a complete recording of the cemetery, approximately 415 readings, walked and recorded by Charlotte Bromley Croshaw, November 2001; walked and proof read by Lois Verbeek and Charlotte Croshaw Dec. 3, 2001. Many of these stones are written in German and are extremely difficult to read. Some of them will not be legible in a very short time. Although the compiler has taken great care in the copying of these stones, this information should be verified by other sources. (CharFive@aol.com)
