This nonprofit cemetery is volunteer-based. Odd Fellows has maintained it since 1871. The cemetery was first blueprinted in 1925 but there is no available copy at this time.
There are three roads that enter the cemetery...Auzie Trobaugh Lane, Curt Rehlmeyer Lane and Les Johnston Lane. The cemetery accommodates 12 sections. The southwest corner of the cemetery contains sections 1 through 4. The southeast corner of the cemetery holds section 4 and where the Old German Cemetery had originated. In the midst of the cemetery is where sections 5 through 8 are located. The northwest corner has sections 9 through 12 and where the Oak Grove Cemetery was developed. The northeast corner contains section 12 where Auzie Trobaugh Lane and George Johnston Lane intersect each other at a u-turn. Please keep in mind that the front part of the cemetery is west and the rear of the cemetery is east.
The burial records are disorganized and the index after 1992 only shows lot owners instead of plot numbers
All inquiries are mainly directed to Fred Rehlmeyer and his alternate number is (618) 524-2583
